Follow from Step 1 to Step 10 in order to create NS2 using Simulator projects. Quick guide to create Network Simulator in Ubuntu. Reach us , if you want an customize NS2 simulator projects works for scholars.
For install the NS-2.35 or NS-3.26 or contiki with cooja or core or other simulation tools , we need the following minimum system requirements.
1)OS : ubuntu-14.04 LTS(32 bit)
2)RAM :minimum 2GB
3)Processor: 2.5 GHz and above
In this example we goto discuss about the ns-2.35 (network simulator-2.35) installation .
