Abstract: A wide assortment of network simulators is available and most of them share the same issues when it comes to computation time and scalability. In this paper we propose an idea to alleviate these problems without the need of any special additional hardware resources or complex programming skills. Our proposal is an upgrade of the standard NS-2 simulator, based on parallel execution on the Graphic Processing Unit using OpenCL.
