| A new release of [NS-3 based Named Data Networking (NDN) simulator](http://ndnsim.net/) |
| went through extensive refactoring and rewriting. The key new features of the new |
| version: |
| |
| - Packet format changed to [NDN Packet Specification](http://named-data.net/doc/ndn-tlv/) |
| |
| - ndnSIM uses implementation of basic NDN primitives from |
| [ndn-cxx library (NDN C++ library with eXperimental eXtensions)](http://named-data.net/doc/ndn-cxx/) |
| |
| Based on version `0.6.0` |
| |
| - All NDN forwarding and management is implemented directly using source code of |
| [Named Data Networking Forwarding Daemon (NFD)](http://named-data.net/doc/NFD/) |
| |
| Based on version `0.6.0` |
| |
| - Allows [simulation of real applications](http://ndnsim.net/guide-to-simulate-real-apps.html) |
| written against ndn-cxx library |
| |
| - Requires a modified version of NS-3 based on version `ns-3.27-22-g90fb309d5` |
