Abstract
Modeling and Simulating Computer Networks Using Formalized Data Flow Diagrams by Michael D. Haverdink, Albert L. Baker, and Armin Mikler Abstract Formalized Data Flow Diagrams (FDFD's) provide simple and natural abstractions for specifying network behavior. We have augmented FDFD's by providing (i) a notion of asynchronous timing of events, (ii) a convenient mechanism for describing "node classes", and (iii) features for specifying network architecture. These extensions will facilitate the modeling of a large computer network (using the langauge NET-SPECS) and the direct generation of a simulator of that network.
