Modeling virus spread on a network using NetLogo for optimum network management

<span>The infections in computer networks are complex. Its spread is analogous to a contagious disease which can cause destruction within few seconds. Viruses or rapidly by various means such as access online social networking sites like twitter, Facebook, and opening of email attachments. Thus, go from being little dangerous significantly harmful for network. This paper proposed simulation model that predict the propagation virus including trend average infection rate using NetLogo software. Observed simulated data sets were validated chi-square tests. Results experiment have demonstrated accurate performance model. The could be very helpful network administrators mitigating obstruct other than usual prevention scheme particularly use antivirus software inclusion firewall security. </span>
