Dear colleagues,

We have released the tool 'An NS2 TCP Evaluation Tool Suite' for some time. Since
then, we have received some feed back from users. We expect to receive wider comments,
and seek collaborations or contributions to make the tool towards a useful one.

The download page is, 
http://labs.nec.com.cn/tcpeval.htm


Here is a brief introduction,
This tool is motivated by the observation that there is significant overlap among (but lack 
of an agreed set of) the topologies, traffic, and metrics used by many researchers in the 
evaluation of TCP alternatives: effort could be saved by starting research from an existing 
framework.  As such, our tool includes several typical topologies and traffic models; it measures 
some of the most important metrics commonly used in TCP evaluation; and it can automatically 
generate simulation statistics and graphs ready for inclusion in latex and html documents.  The 
tool also contains an extendable open-source framework.  With community effort, we hope the 
tool evolves into a widely accepted, well-defined set of TCP performance evaluation benchmarks. 

Best Regards.

Gang Wang.
