Qureshi, Ayaz Ahmed Supervisor Dr. Asim Imdad Wagan creator Department of Information Technology text monographic ABSTRACT Network coding is a useful technique introduced in order to improve network throughput t and performance level. This thesis intends to explore and study Network Coding characteristics in order to develop a reliable and comparative simulation study based on network coding and non-network coding models. Simulations experiments are Performed using OPNET simulator interfaced with the MATLAB. The Linear Information flow algorithm is implemented in order to achieve performance results that are based on maximum traffic flow. http://tiny.cc/cs2cvz http://tiny.cc/cs2cvz
