Discrete-Time Simulator for Wireless Mobile Agents

Simulations are widely used to evaluate outcomes of mobile wireless systems. They enable repeatable experiments and permit to evaluate large-scale scenarios without limitations. In this paper, we present a discrete-time simulator for multiple wireless networked agents. This simulator implements a simple opportunistic network layer and a simple physical layer. An extended human interface enables fast and easy creation of new simulations. This simulator is used to validate a new algorithm for a system of agents which communicate locally and self-organize to move boxes from a point of a scene to another.
