During the last fifteen years we have been involved in the design and development of some extremely popular used pieces of open source software. Two of them, the dummynet network emulator and the netmap framework, are available as kernel components for popular operating systems, and widely used in research and operation. In this paper we will briefly describe the internals of the two systems, discuss the challenges in building kernel components that run on multiple operating systems, and analyse the difficulties in developing and maintaining this type of open source systems.

Abstract
During the last fifteen years we have been involved in the design and development of some extremely popular used pieces of open source software. Two of them, the dummynet network emulator and the netmap framework, are available as kernel components for popular operating systems, and widely used in research and operation. In this paper we will briefly describe the internals of the two systems, discuss the challenges in building kernel components that run on multiple operating systems, and analyse the difficulties in developing and maintaining this type of open source systems.File in questo prodotto:
