Trace graph - Network Simulator NS-2 trace files analyser

Trace graph is a free network trace files analyser developed for network simulator ns-2 trace processing. Trace graph can support any trace format if converted to its own or ns-2 trace format. Trace graph runs under Windows, Linux, UNIX and MAC OS systems. Trace converter processes traces over 80x faster and is available to buy.

Supported ns-2 trace file formats:

• wired
  
• satellite
  
• wireless (old and new trace)
  
• new trace
  
• wired-wireless.
  

Some of the program features (version 2.05):

• 238 2D graphs
  
• 12 3D graphs
  
• delays, jitter, processing times, round trip times, throughput graphs and statistics
  
• whole network, link and node graphs and statistics
  
• all the results can be saved to text files, graphs can also be saved as jpeg and tiff
  
• x, y, z axes information: minimum, mean, maximum, standard deviation, median
  
• any graph saved in text file with 2 or 3 columns can be plotted
  
• script files processing to do the analysis automatically.

Installation

Installation instructions on Linux:
1)Download tracegraph and mglinstaller from the webpage
Check Trace graph download page: http://www.tracegraph.com/download.html
Choose Linux version and download mglinstaller.
2) tar -xvzf tracegraph202.linux.tar.gz
3) gunzip mglinstaller.gz
4) You have to uncompress the file "mglinstaller.gz" and after doing it you will get the file "mglinstaller".
Now, there's no need to use chmod to change the rights and run ./mglinstaller.(or) Just do "sh mglinstaller" and
the script will do the rest for you.
5)set the environment path variable...
setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /home/nmahali/trace/tracegraph202/bin/glnx86/
to check whether the variable is set properly u can just type $LD_LIBRARY_PATH Architecture
of the path variable setting:: if new variable then setenv path
if already existing then setenv {$}.

Installation instructions on Windows:
1)Download tracegraph and mglinstaller from the page make sure it is windows version http://www.tracegraph.com/download.html
2)unzip tracegraph202.zip to say, D:\
3)execute mglinstaller.exe, when it asks for directory name, enter D:\tracegraph202
4) add D:\tracegraph202\bin\win32 to your environment PATH
5)how to add to environment PATH??
right click on Mycomputer and select properties
From properties select Advanced tab
Select environment path variables
Select PATH and add your path to it
Thats it tracegraph is now ready!!
This is the procedure i followed while installing tracegraph on both windows and linux (if you dont have matlab installed on your machine.)
