This page summarizes the ongoing release planning for ns-3.12. Tom Henderson, John Abraham, and Mitch Watrous will be jointly managing the release.
Proposed release schedule
- May 25 -- ns-3.11 posted, ns-3.12 open phase begins.
- Wed Aug 10 -- code freeze on ns-3-dev
- Wed Aug 17 -- ns-3.12 released
Please see Release Process concerning general aspects of the release schedule.
Proposed supported platforms
- Ubuntu 11.04 (32/64 bit)
- Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (64 bit)
- Fedora Core 15 (32/64 bit)
- Mac OS X Lion
- CentOS or RHEL?
Packaging
- Traditional ns-allinone-3.X.tar.bz2 packaging.
- TBD rpms for Fedora
- TBD debs for Ubuntu
Release blockers
None at this time.
New features being considered for ns-3.12
These should be reviewed quickly to see if they can be integrated to this release.
- Dynamic Source Routing (DSR)
- TDMA model
- ObjectMap, to add a map to the attribute system instead of a vector
Bugs being worked
We are trying to close these bugs for this release cycle (no guarantees that we will get them all):
- documentation
- documentation
- Build OpenSolaris
- Wifi Update RELEASE NOTES
- ConfigStore
- Packet const methods
- variable length array
- variable length array
- path to attributes has bogus entries
- Patch UAN module
- TCP Nagle and RTO (also bug 1227 is a duplicate)
Also, the collection of "set but not used" bugs (such as bugs 1147-1162). Note that the general solution for bug 1170 is still in work.
Also, the collection of RealtimeSimulatorImpl and TapBridge patches (Tom Goff is looking at):
- Simulator::Next useless depends on 631
- RealtimeSimulator and Ctrl-C
- Tap Bridge and Emu Net Devices Do Not Shut Down Properly
- stopping TapBridge
- Make realtime simulator last until stop
Active reviews sliding past ns-3.12
These are not going to complete in time for the ns-3.12 release.
- BRITE Integration
- under revision
- LTE code from the Lena project
- NetDevice queue feedback
- Animation interface changes (to support XML output)
- Virtual Access Point (VAP) for WiFi
- needs updated to ns-3.11 code; needs review
- GetRelativeVelocity() for MobilityModel
- needs review
- PhySimWifi
- needs review
- thread-safe implementation of ScheduleWithContext
- simple wireless models
- Jamming model
- MPLS
- TCP Vegas (blocked by lack of progress on TCP congestion control architecture)
ns-3.12 features merged
- IPv4 header Class MinMaxAvgTotalCalculator does not implement all the methods in its interface
- Fragmentation support for IPv4
ns-3.12 bugs fixed
