How long such a simulation will take depends on many factors, including machine CPU, memory, topology, and the actual scenario. But in any case, even if it takes 3 days to finish, NS-3/ndnSIM will simulate just 5 seconds of the network activity in the scenario you have defined.</div><div><br></div><div>---</div><div>Alex</div><br><div><div>On Sep 29, 2014, at 11:32 AM, Haroon Rashid <<a href="mailto:haroonr@iiitd.ac.in">haroonr@iiitd.ac.in</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr"><div>Hi Alex,<br><br></div>Yes, you are right. I was thinking of the same. But, I want to know how we can relate simulation time to the actual time.
