JNS JAVA Network SImulator

NS2 is claimed to be difficult to use. So thats why JNS is developed.

What is JNS?

This is the detail given by the oficail website of JNS.

http://jns.sourceforge.net/

"The Java Network Simulator is a Java implementation of the ns-2 simulator originally from Berkeley. It is by no means as complete as ns-2, but it is a lot more accessible to programmers not familiar with Object Tcl.

JNS allows developers of networking protocols to simulate their protocols in a controlled environment. The simulator then produces a trace file (same format as NAM trace files) which can be viewed in a network animator such as Javis. Below is a screen shot of a simulation run from JNS being animated in Javis."

I personally never used JNS since I have no problem with NS2. Is it really good?
Can the JNS catch up with NS-2 development?
