Quantifying the end-to-end performance of evolving DOD communication networks is highly desired by the component and network designers during all phases of the development process. Analytical techniques, inlab testing and field demonstrations are all necessary toward this end but all have limitations in addressing this need. Simulation remains a primary method with which to generate end-to-end performance. However, simulation often results in unacceptably long runtimes for these types of networks. The purpose of this paper is to report on the results generated in the second year of a 2-year IR&D program to investigate methods to improve simulation runtime performance when simulating mobile ad-hoc communication networks.
