| Abstract | In this study, a graphical simulator is developed with
capability of graphically simulating the Token bus LAN
exhaustive and fixed time protocols, and can enumerate
performance characteristics of the Token bus LAN.

The methodology is based on a graphical representation of
the network consisting of three components: topology, nodes and
protocols. The topology and nodes are drawn to network
specification. The protocols are represented by using the Petri
Net graph with some extended features.

simulator is developed using Turbo Pascal Version 4. 0
under MS - DOS . The developed system can be used to
demonstrate the working of Token bus LAN and execution
Net.
This simulator has been designed for a maximum of 5 nodes
with fixed packet size and balanced load. Simulation tests were
conducted using both the protocols for performance evaluation
with respect to throughput and queueing delays for various
network conditions. The results have shown that with exhaustive
protocol, the average queueing delays are less compared to the
fixed time protocol. |
