ABSTRACT
With this chapter starts the third part of our book, dedicated to
the thorough presentation of QOMB, a wireless network emula-
tion testbed to the development of which we participated and
still contribute actively [15]. QOMB is a relatively new network
emulation tool, hence not so widely known in the research
community. Nevertheless, the issues that we encountered during its
development also apply to other network emulators. We therefore
think that reporting our hands-on experience with QOMB will help
our readers in two possible ways:
• Those involved in developing network emulators should find helpful hints by reading the description of the components
of QOMB, and their integration (Chapter 10, Chapter 11, and
Chapter 12).
