About
What is Hynesim?
Hynesim is a distributed open source information systems simulation platform written in C++ using the Qt4 framework.
What is a "distributed open source information systems simulation platform" ?
Indeed that's quite a mouthful, let's break it down:
- "Open source" is easy: Hynesim is released under the GPL v3.0, which means the source is free for everyone to grab and modify.
- What we call an "information system" is a network of machines that provide services to their users, such as your company's intranet. Hynesim is a bundle of software to design, create and run a distributed simulation of such a system.
- It's "distributed" because running simulations of large information systems requires computing power, so you can provide as many Hynesim nodes as you need, the load will be balanced between them.
- It's a "simulation" because everything runs inside Hynesim, giving you the possibility of pausing, saving and loading simulations. And because Hynesim is more than one software, we call it a platform.
So there you have it: "open source information systems simulation platform".
The hynesim core team will be present at Hack.lu 2008 !
Hack.lu 2008 is a three days conference in the centre of Europe for bridging ethics and security in computer science (October 22, 2008 – October 24, 2008). Hack.lu is an open convention /conference where people can discuss about computer security, privacy, information technology and its cultural/technical implications on society. Feel free to come and meet us !

The hynesim core team will be present at SAR/SSI'2008 !
SAR/SSI will take place in the beautiful city of Loctudy, Domaine du Dourdy (13-17 october 2008), in French Brittany. SAR/SSI is the new annual research conference of the SAR/SSI series. It aims at fostering the presentation for high quality research work in network and system security. The goal of this event is to provide a framework for exchanges among academic researchers, industry, graduate students and a broader audience interested in network and system security. The conference will offer a broad area of events, ranging from panels, tutorials, technical presentations and informal meetings. Feel free to come and meet us !

STTIC 2008 is finished !
We were physically present at the STTIC 2008 symposium the 4,5 & 6 june 2008. Lots of excellent speeches and various rumps. A good feeback can be found at http://www.sstic.org/SSTIC08/presse.do. We briefly described the Hynesim project, what we were trying to achieve, and what difficulties lay ahead. The presentation was very abstract because we are still at a designing stage, but in the other conferences to come, we will have more technical aspects to talk about.
