Abstract
We present QUANTAS: a simulator that enables quantitative performance analysis of distributed algorithms. It has a number of attractive features. QUANTAS is an abstract simulator, therefore, the obtained results are not affected by the specifics of a particular network or operating system architecture. QUANTAS allows distributed algorithms researchers to quickly investigate a potential solution and collect data about its performance. QUANTAS programming is relatively straightforward and is accessible to theoretical researchers. To demonstrate QUANTAS capabilities, we implement and compare the behavior of two representative examples from four major classes of distributed algorithms: blockchains, distributed hash tables, consensus, and reliable data link message transmission.
