When multiple users share a system for working on their projects following difficulties may arise:
- Conflict in source code modification
- Manual Backing up source codes to avoid overwriting the master copy.
- Manual linking of modified binaries with the simulation process.
- Manual reset of binaries and code.
- Frequent unexpected simulation crash due to a large number of steps and procedures.
- Need to reinstall the software to get the original copy of the source codes if overwritten.
NetSim workspace solves these problems
- A NetSim Workspace can be considered as a folder/storage where experiments can be saved.
- A Workspace contains NetSim protocol binaries, icons, experiments, source codes (not in academic version), and other data files.
- Multiple users can share a system by creating an individual workspace to share the licenses.
- Code modifications done in one workspace will not affect the others.
- Multiple workspaces can be created in the same system to isolate the source codes of different projects. Whenever a new workspace is created, a fresh copy of the protocol source codes will be created.
- Up to 500 Workspaces can be created for NetSim.
- Up to 1000 experiments can be saved under a workspace.
- The workspace also comes with options that provide one-click access to source codes, auto-link code modifications to simulation kernel and reset codes and binaries.
- Allows export/import of experiments within a workspace and entire the workspace itself.
