Package org.cloudbus.cloudsim.network

package org.cloudbus.cloudsim.network

Provides classes to define network assets, such as different kinds of AbstractSwitch and also the NetworkTopology that can be specified in some standard file format and read using a implementation of TopologyReader.

It also provides class to enable simulation of network package transmission. For more information about the network module, please refer to following publication:
