Abstract

We introduce our SimUTC toolkit, a fault-tolerant distributed systems simulation built upon the discrete event simulation package C++SIM. SimUTC has been developed in the course of our project SynUTC and targets distributed algorithms for high-accuracy fault-tolerant clock synchronization. This application domain requires detailed simulation models for network transmission and local clock devices, fault-injection capabilities, flexible system configuration facilities, and customized data capture and analysis tools. We explain how SimUTC addresses those issues and provide a few samples of simulation results gathered from the evaluation of the well-known Fault-Tolerant Average clock synchronization algorithm.
