●●SolidNiche GemBig Brain

Native IEC 61850 protocol support in ns-3 when no module existed before.

Strengths
  • •Wire-level protocol implementation via libiec61850 means realistic Smart Grid simulations
  • •Full test suite with Docker images for reproducible research environments
  • •Academic paper backing validates the implementation approach
Weaknesses
  • •Depends on libiec61850 rather than pure native implementation from scratch
  • •Extremely narrow audience — power systems researchers only
Target Audience

Power systems researchers, network simulation engineers
