Maciej Piechowiak, Piotr Zwierzykowski, Krzysztof Stachowiak, Tomasz Bartczak · 2014
The article analyzes and explores the performance of multicast heuristic algorithms and quality of multicast trees in ad-hoc networks. It also provides a detailed analysis and a description of the implementation of methods for the topology generation in ad-hoc networks with the application of topology control protocols. Network topology planning and performance analysis are crucial challenges for wire and wireless network designers. They are also involved in the research on routing algorithms and protocols for ad-hoc networks. In addition, it is worth to emphasize that the generation of realistic network topologies makes it possible to construct and study routing algorithms, protocols and traffic characteristics for ad-hoc networks.
