A MODELING APPROACH FOR EVENT- BASED NETWORKING DESIGN USING MATLAB- SIMEVENTS

Abstract

The present development of technology revealed that practices in the fields of science and engineering associated with a complex event-based system design and its implementation requiring an accurate modeling method. The reliability of the method takes a very important role in the system’s verification, modification, and implementation to allow a scientist or administrator to predict the result from changes to the system. Modeling and simulation generally have been used to understand the engineering and operation of a system which represented as the chronological sequence of events as a basic method of a Discrete-Event Simulation (DES). A complex system of queuing models, flow control, communications networks, and others can also be developed and analyzed using DES. This paper describes an application tools of MATLAB-SimEvents as one of modeling method with event-based simulation as a form of simplification approach for the development complex systems. The demonstration of the application is applied to the Internet system, i.e. Content Delivery Network (CDN). The discussion presented in this paper is expected to support researchers and practitioners in understanding the basics of modeling and simulation in general contexts
