Abstract

In this paper, an enhanced mobility manager will be presented to overcome many drawbacks of Castalia’s traditional mobility manager. The presented mobility manger can deal with paths rather than lines. This will allow users to simulate nodes moving with any possibilities within the simulation space. Additionally a 3D visualization engine will be integrated so that users can visualize their simulated 3D spaces and node easily. Our system will be built by using OMNET++ and Castalia’s traditional mobility manager. The visualizations provide full navigation, incorporate real-time construction schedule information.
