We present an application program, Distributed Algorithm Simulator, to simulate the execution of distributed leader election algorithms in a ring-network. The application was developed using Visual C# on Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5. The Distributed Algorithm Simulator consists of two major components: A Visual Simulator, which visually demonstrates the execution of the algorithms; and a Textual Simulator, which simulates the execution in text format. In both cases the end-result can be saved to a file.
The Visual Simulator displays the network in a ring orientation with circles representing the nodes, and numbers on them showing the node IDs. The user has …
