WSN (Wireless Sensor Network) applications have been widely used in recent years. We introduce a new method for modeling WSN, based on the specification of the WSN using the Cell-Discrete-Event Systems Specification (DEVS) formalism: the space is partitioned into cells where each cell can be considered a sensor, an obstacle, or anything of a behavior with defined rules. This model is then converted automatically into DEVS model at runtime. We present two case studies analyzing the use of energy in WSN member nodes, which have impact on prolonging the overall network lifetime. We study to analyze energy consumption related to routing and data transmission at the node level, and topology residual energy control methods at the cluster level (i.e. group of sensors) level. The goal is to show how these spatial modeling methods can be used for building WSN models in a simple but efficient fashion.

“…The atomic models are implemented in C++ while the coupled models are described in textual specifications. Furthermore, one of the presented models in Tavanpour et al 28 uses Cell-DEVS to model malware propagation in WSN based on the pandemic theory. This model is slightly close to what we are presenting here.…”

“…When it comes to networking applications, the reader can refer to Tavanpour et al [21], for example, who proposed the related CA model. A mobile network was modeled to track the users' upload status in a given coverage area, while utilizing either a non-cooperative algorithm or Coordinated Multipoint (CoMP) synchronization.…”

We present a novel formalism for describing the evolution of dynamic-link network parameters; it is based on the Cellular Automaton (CA) model. Such formalism is of wideuse for modeling natural (e.g., physical, chemical, etc.) processes. We propose a particular model and survey the related work, with respect to the use of CA to simulate various communication networks. We showcase the flexibility of the proposed approach to model different evolution patterns. These patterns can be used to emulate / simulate different network scenarios (states of the network parameters), and test novel implementations under distinct conditions. Additionally, we propose an algorithm for guaranteeing that the described patterns hold properties of interest, within a bounded time.
