AGUILAR-GONZALEZ, Alberto et al. BiT-SiEm: A packet-level simulation and emulation platform for BitTorrent. J. appl. res. technol [online]. 2017, vol.15, n.6, pp.513-523. ISSN 2448-6736. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jart.2017.05.009.
Simulation and emulation have been used by researchers to develop new network protocols and to test, modify and optimize existing ones; these experiments must imitate the heterogeneous nature of the Internet in a controllable environment suitable to answer what-if questions. BitTorrent is not the exception. In this paper, we present a simulation platform that allows the interaction of simulated and emulated peers; the BitTorrent protocol is implemented in the simulator with a high degree of detail in which any genuine BitTorrent implementation would seamlessly fit into the platform. To evaluate our platform, several experiments were completed with thousands of peers; then, we compared the results of these tests with two mathematical models to corroborate its correctness.
