The study of mobile networking modeling for ad hoc networks is still in its infancy, a full analysis environment of common utilities does not exist. While some very important capability currently exists, a means of integrating them together into a production quality environment does not. The Network Interdisciplinary Computing Environment (NiCE) is designed to accomplish this task. NiCE is built around a new common data model and format for mobile networking experiments and codes. NiCE provides network researchers a cross-platform setup, runtime, analysis and visualization environment. Since this computational discipline is not as mature as some other physics based modeling efforts, it is difficult to exchange models and results between experimental and computational resources to develop high-fidelity, accurate predictions of how various networks will perform under realistic military conditions.
