    7   * '''Flexibility''': The simulator allows to simulate both structured and unstructured overlay networks (currently ''Chord'' and ''GIA'' are implemented). The modular design and use of the Common API facilitate the extension with new features or protocols. Module behavior can easily be customized by specify parameters in a human readable configuration file.

Module behavior can easily be customized by specify parameters in a human readable configuration file.

    99  * '''Interactive GUI''': In order to validate and debug new or existing overlay protocols you can make use of the GUI of OMNeT++, which visualizes networks topologies, messages and node state variables like the routing table.
    1010
    11   * '''Exchangeable Underlying Network Models''': Our simulation framework has a flexible underlying network scheme, which on the one hand provides a fully configurable network topology with realistic bandwidths, packet delays, and packet losses (''IPv4Underlay''), and on the other hand a fast and simple alternative model for high simulation performance (''!SimpleUnderlay'').

    1313  * '''Scalability''': !OverSim was designed with performance in mind. On a modern desktop PC a typical Chord network of 10,000 nodes can be simulated in real-time. We successfully simulated networks of up to 100,000 nodes.
     
    2121This is a list of features we're currently working on, which will be available in one of the next releases of !OverSim:
    2222
    23   * '''Additional overlay protocols''': At the moment we're working on implementations of ''Kademlia'', ''Koorde'', ''Broose'' as well as several Application Layer Multicast protocols.
     23  * '''Additional overlay protocols''': At the moment we're working on implementations of ''Kademlia'' and other overlay protocols as well as several Application Layer Multicast protocols.
    2424
    2525  * '''Additional applications''': In the future we like to add new applications which make use of the overlay protocols like a DHT, the ''Internet Indirection Infrastructure (i3)'' protocol or traffic generators for multicast traffic.
