Abstract

We present a new simulation analysis, with a complex systems perspective, in order to study WSN operations. We have built different scenarios on which we evaluate the congestion control and the routing mechanisms. An agent-directed simulation has been developed, where data packets are regarded as active entities, i.e., agents. With this approach, it is possible to analyze the system behavior, either from a microscopic or macroscopic view. The simulation model proposed fosters the development of solutions for routing and congestion control.
