Résumé

With current network simulators, simulation results are obtained from flat trace files via sequential data access. To speed up simulation output analysis, we propose to store the simulation traces into data warehouse. Our proposed framework relies on a three-layer architecture, with the intermediary database layer serving the trace file post processing services. The trace files are accessed through SQL-like queries which greatly enhances the flexibility of the post processing tools. Furthermore, the database paradigm allows to separate the packets data from the nodes send and receive operations and thus to remove redundant information between simulation events. The global system relies on a new trace file format based on the popular XML language. XML pointers are used to create relationships between data so that post processing tools can navigate into simulation outputs. The tests are carried out under the MonetDB database. The obtained results show considerable response time improvement compared to traditional sequential access mode.
