			The Time Bar graphs show packet transmission/reception or internal states and changes in relation to time. It can be seen as Message Sequence Chart or a UML sequence diagram (but with missing edges...). For visualization Brn.Gui uses the [http://www.jaret.de/timebars jaret timebars]. Many thanks to Peter Kliem for providing these fantastic tools.

			[http://jarok.cs.ohiou.edu/software/tcptrace/ Tcptrace] is a powerful tool for analyzing TCP flows. We ported tcptrace to Java and integrated it into the Brn.Measure framework. For displaying tcptrace graphs in Brn.Gui we are using [http://masaka.cs.ohiou.edu/software/jPlot/ jPlot].

= Implementation Details =
The Brn.Gui is a stand-alone Eclipse RCP application. A Brn.Sim instance can be connected to the Brn.Gui via Java RMI. The out-of-process architecture (and the resulting RMI overhead) is mainly technical: the usage of custom classloader during simulation causes several problems which RMI solves through serialization.
