Following the success of Bitcoin, Ethereum and Hyperledger, Blockchain technologies are now gaining widespread adoption in a wide variety of applications, using a diversity of distributed ledger systems with varying characteristics. Properties of such systems are not sufficiently analyzed. To better understand the behavior of these systems, we established VIBES: a configurable blockchain simulator for large-scale peer-to-peer networks. With VIBES, users can explore essential characteristics and metrics of the network, investigate the interactions among nodes, and intuitively compare different simulation scenarios.
VIBES: fast blockchain simulations for large-scale peer-to-peer networks
For installation, Please follow the Appendix A (Page 82) in this documentation
Hint: Using IntelliJ IDEA might make the setup with Scala/sbt easier.
For detailed documentation, please review these two Master Theses:
