Abstract

Nowadays, Mobile Ad-hoc NETworks (manet are investigated and adopted in many application scenarios, such as emergency management. Unfortunately, testing and validating complex systems developed on top of manet is still a difficult and error-prone task, due to the scarce availability of virtual environments. In this paper, we present octopus a virtual emulation environment for manet in which designers and developers can create scenarios in large scale areas including obstacles, defining different movement models, and use real hand-held devices for deploying their software/applications.
