Synthesis Lectures on Communication Networks is an ongoing series of 50-to 100-page publications on topics on the design, implementation, and management of communication networks. Each lecture is a self-contained presentation of one topic by a leading expert. The topics range from algorithms to hardware implementations and cover a broad spectrum of issues from security to multiple-access protocols. The series addresses technologies from sensor networks to reconfigurable optical networks. The series is designed to: • Provide the best available presentations of important aspects of communication networks. • Help engineers and advanced students keep up with recent developments in a rapidly evolving technology.

“…In order to investigate the performance of the NoACKbased and ACK-based opportunistic flooding algorithms, both of them were implemented using the simulator tool OMNeT++ (object modular network testbed in C++) [27], which is an extensible, modular, component-based C++ simulation library and framework for building network simulators. Compared with other existing simulators, OMNeT++ is acquiring a good reputation in the simulations of wireless sensor networks, thanks to its ability to address effectively the addition of new modules [28]. Specifically, the implementation is based on the framework of Castalia project [29].…”

Wireless sensor network (WSN) is an emerging technology widely applied in modern applications. The resource limitations and the peculiarity of broadcast communication have made traditional flooding methods suffering severe performance degradation if directly applied to duty‐cycle WSNs in which each node auto‐activates for a brief interval and stays dormant most of time. In this work, a theoretical performance analysis of acknowledgement (ACK)‐based and non‐acknowledgement (NoACK)‐based transmission mechanisms is presented. The evaluation considers both a point‐to‐point model and a point‐to‐multipoint one. Furthermore, the opportunistic flooding algorithm, which considers the effects of both duty cycle and unreliable wireless links of WSN, is implemented and evaluated considering both the ACK‐based and NoACK‐based transmission mechanisms. A solid framework is proposed in order to optimise the flooding in duty‐cycle WSNs according to the network requirements. Extensive simulations show that ACK‐based and NoACK‐based implementations produce a similar performance on the flooding delay, but with significantly different costs on the energy consumption.

“…His primary area of application is the simulation of communication networks, but because of its generic and flexible architecture, is successfully used in other areas like the simulation of complex IT systems, queuing networks as well as hardware architectures. [13] OMNeT++ provides a architecture of components for models. Components (modules) are programmed in C++, and then assembled into components and models larger using a high level language (NED).…”

Since the last decade, the area of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) is a field search on the rise. Due to its high mobility and scalability in several areas, acting on functions of sensing, monitoring, tracking, control and maintenance, WSNs are increasingly attracting researchers for the study. With the advent of computer simulations, it has been eliminated, in part by the necessity of obtaining real sensors, which because of its implementation cost, eventually disabling the initial analysis and further tests with these networks. Considering that most of these simulator programs are native from GNU/Linux, expertises are needed to implement these tools in the operating system, which can be a problem. This paper presents the Liowsn project, which is a GNU/Linux operating system remastered with several classic tools of literature already installed and configured, and it has been proposed in order to achieve a higher speed in the implementation process of the simulation environment to study this type of network.
