RINA Simulator
Version changelog
- July-September 2015 - RIBd notifiers, pre-EFCPv6 updates, CDAPProcessingBase interface,
merging partner's contribution (namely routing and congestion control),
added Hop Count to PDU header
- May/June 2015 - Enrollment, (N-1)-data/management separation, MIT relicensing,
EFCPv4+ updates, separation of QoSCubes and QoS requirements,
change of QoSCube-id datatype, source code split between
policies and src, PDU headers for (N)-management frames,
multiple AEs within single AP communication
- April 2015 - Routing policies prototypes, traceback packet file, CDAP redesign
- March 2015 - Slowdown/Pushupnotif congestion control, basic statistics,
flow lifecycle, AEStream/ExtendedPing
- February 2015 - After-Ghent release with FA policies
- January 2015 - Ghent meeting with EFCP, RMT, RA, PDUFTG and policies
- November 2014 - Brussels RV1 with AllNodes examples
- October 2014 - Madrid F2F meeting with working SimpleRelay and TwoCSs scenarios
