Peer-to-peer (p2p) protocols, like all distributed protocols, are
complex, and therefore harder to debug and study in the wild. This
is more true of existing p2p protocols, where changing the behaviour
of the protocol --- however minor the change may be --- may result in
unknown manifestations on the dynamics of the swarm using that
protocol. In lieu of the unintended consequences of perturbing a
live swarm, researchers have resorted to simulation frameworks.
However, simulation results obtained from one simulator are often
hard to reproduce when using another simulation framework. This
document surveys existing simulator frameworks prevalent in
simulating p2p protocols today in order to quantify any assumptions
and characteristics inherent in the simulator. This, we hope, will
aid future researchers in choosing the right simulation framework for
their abstraction.
