Presentation
Yavista/XAV aims at real time exploration of GB network traces.
Yavista/XAV reads network traces from network simulators & real networks in the XAV format.
The Yavista/XAV platform provides database & graphical services to trace analysis applications.

Yavista/XAV is composed of 3 components:
  • Yavista store: set of trace analysis apps that runs on top of Yavista/XAV
  • Yavista: part of the plateform that provides graphics services to apps
  • XAV:     part of the plateform taht provides database services to apps
Features
  • Rapid prototyping of trace analysis apps
  • Local & remote DB access
  • GB trace support via multiple remote DB servers
  • Multi-layer analysis (link, network & application layers)
  • Cross-layer analysis
  • Comparison between real network & simulators / different simulators / different protocols

Yavista/XAV 2 beta


Supported environments
The XAV format may be supported natively in network simulators & real systems (see your docs) or via XAV patches.
Patches are provided for:
  • NS-2.30 (network simulator)
    • wired and wireless nodes
    • several network protocols such as CBR, TCP, IP, AODV, ARP, 802.11, 802.3
