Title:  Simulating Depth-based routing in Underwater Networks
Time: 13:45
Location: Meeting room
Type: Research Result
Speaker: Mohsin Jafri
Abstract: In this talk, I will briefly discuss my ongoing research activities. I will present the implementation of a simulator for
studying Depth-Based Routing (DBR) in Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks (UWSNs). One of the major challenges for DBR is the configuration of a parameter called “holding time” which influences the network throughput, response time and energy consumption. I will show how it is possible to use the simulator to support the validation of a choice for a given value of the holding time, as well as other network parameters. The presentation will also discuss the important features that distinguish the implemented simulator with respect to the other ones available in the scientific literature and its validation against previous simulation models or measurements.
