Evaluation framework for simulating MANET-based systems

Abstract

For emergency situations, the network system based on wireless multihop networks such as a mobile ad hoc network (MANET) has been developing to exchange messages among users without the aid of the infrastructure networks. However, many MANET-based systems have been evaluated through the simulation experiments. In this paper, we propose an evaluation framework combining simulator and game engine to simulate MANET-based systems in more realistic environment and present the case study of the evaluation framework.
