- Abstract: Direct Code Execution is a framework for ns-3. It facilitates to execute Linux kernel and Linux userspace networking applications inside ns-3 without changing their code. In order to provide such functionality, DCE integrates network simulator with custom Linux kernels like net-next-sim or net-next-nuse (LibOs). But net-next-nuse has not kept pace with new versions of Linux kernel. This has been the major hindrance for DCE to use latest Linux kernel. An active alternate to LibOs is Linux Kernel Library (LKL) which provides similar features of LibOs and supports latest Linux kernel versions. In this project, DCE will extend to support the networking stack of LKL and embed real libc in LKL.
