A preprocessor Tcl script generator for NS-2 communication network simulation

In performance studies of vehicular ad hoc networks, intelligent simulation tools like NS-2 plays an important role. Since Tcl scripts are widely used, we have implemented a new tool which is MyTool for generating Tcl scripts file. In this work, we introduce the specific characteristics of MyTool and discuss its features compared with NSG2 (NS-2 Scenarios Generator 2). In later section, we illustrate one wireless communication network's example to explain how MyTool does work to build up communication network, create the Tcl script files and finally run the simulation in NS-2.
