User Mode Linux

User mode linux is a open source software that allows to run Linux in a “virtual machine” on top of a physical Linux box.It plays a key role in designing the software.

With the help of UML,we can simulate large no. of PCs.In this project, we developed a software to simulate large no. of PCs.These PCs are actually virtual machines running on top of a host.We tried our best to simulate maximum no. of clients possible on a host with given RAM.

One application of software will be in MPP,a product developed at HSR,Switzerland.It enables users to buy access to the internet at Hotspots.But right now,there is a problem when no. of clients trying to connect exceed a given limit.So,a software to simulate this environment has to be designed.
