Gossip Simulator

Implementation of gossip protocols for information dissemination in a network with different kinds of topologies.

Installation

If available in Hex, the package can be installed by adding proj2 to your list of dependencies in mix.exs:

def deps do
  [
    {:proj2, "~> 0.1.0"}
  ]
end

Documentation can be generated with ExDoc and published on HexDocs. Once published, the docs can be found at https://hexdocs.pm/proj2.

How to run-

1. Go inside directory using: cd proj2
2. Now, to compile write: mix compile
3. To run, use: mix run my_program arg1 arg2 arg3

What is working-

Convergence of Gossip algorithm for all topologies - Full, Line, Imperfect Line, Random 2D, 3D, Sphere Convergence of Push Sum algorithm for all topologies - Full, Line, Imperfect Line, Random 2D, 3D, Sphere

Largest Network -

Gossip Algorithm:

Line topology - 1000 Nodes Imperfect Line topology- 2000 nodes Random2D topology- 3000 nodes Sphere topology- 2000 nodes 3D topology- 2000 nodes Full topology- 1000 nodes

Push Sum Algorithm:

Line topology - 1000 Nodes Imperfect Line topology- 5000 nodes Random2D topology- 3000 nodes Sphere topology- 2000 nodes 3D topology- 3000 nodes Full topology- 2000 nodes

Sometimes convergence of full topology takes more time than line, because in line all nodes could not converge but in full network most of the nodes gets information so they run until everyone has heard information 10 times. So,full takes more time to converge sometimes.
