Routing in ad-hoc networks, specifically intelligent-based ones, is a highly interested research topic in recent years. Most of them are simulation-based study. Large percentages have not even mentioned some of the fundamental parameters. This strictly reduces their validity and reliability. On the other hand, there is not a comprehensive framework to classify routing algorithms in wireless sensor networks yet. In this paper, we present a novel comprehensive taxonomy for routing algorithms along with a complete experimental evaluation framework. It makes the ability to put each routing algorithm in its place. It also provides a complete view of the algorithm behavior. At the end, a proper framework is introduced to express essential simulation parameters too. This can lead to improve the quality of scientific practices in the simulation studies.
