The main difficulty in networks simulation is the enormous computational power needed to execute all events involved by packets transmission through the network. Popular commercial and publicly released packet-level simulators like OPNET, NS or OMNeT require costly shared-memory supercomputers to run even medium size network simulation.

Future research should focus on testing the results of the simulation program under heterogeneous node behavior or directed or sparse topologies. Future research should aim to generalize the results to other complex systems. Future research should focus on developing new methodologies for modeling and simulating network dynamics.
