***********************************************************************************

for simulation we need following files

.cc

.h

.ini

• tells the simulation program which network you want to simulate

.ned

• identifies the network's nodes and the links between them

we have all these files in a directory directory_name and we follow--

create MAKEFILE as

$ opp_makemake

add dependency to MAKEFILE as

$ make depend

compile and link theprogram as

$ make

this will generate an executable link having  same name as directory .

launch the simulation as

$ ./directory_name

 and a sample simulation may look like following
