Hi,

I am trying to repeat the simulation in the paper: "Performance Comparison of 
Two On-Demand routing protocols for Ad Hoc Networks". I am using ns2 v2.27 in 
Windows (by cigwin). I generate the traffic patter file: cbr-50-3--4-512 and the 
mobility scenario file: scen-1500x300-50-300-20.

In the paper, the packet delivery fraction of 50 node, 30 sources,300m pause time is arond 0.77. But in my simulation (tcl file attached), the fraction is only 0.69. I think this is a big difference. Could you review the files (or even run it) and give me some suggestions? I am wondering several questions.

1). The method for calculating the packet delivery ration based on the trace file is correct or not.

2). Could you kindly tell me how to calculate the end to end packet delay and normalized rouiting load and MAC load as in the paper? Using the trace file?

3). I changed the routing protocol to AODV, some error occurs: Segmentation fault (core dumped).

Your suggestions are appreciated!

Regareds,
Qinghai Gao
