Spyridon Mastorakisa879e022017-10-16 17:12:14 -07008This website includes the ndnSIM documentation and is intended to help the community use the simulator for NDN experimentation. It is not intended to present the principles or the design of the NDN architecture and communication model.
Alexander Afanasyevf34fe562013-08-09 17:16:12 -07009We invite you to <a href="http://www.lists.cs.ucla.edu/mailman/listinfo/ndnsim" target="_blank">join our mailing list</a> to see and participate in discussions about ndnSIM implementation and simulations in general (<a href="http://www.lists.cs.ucla.edu/pipermail/ndnsim/" target="_blank">mailing list archives</a>).
