Location-tracking, ubicomp functionalities and MANET transmission strategies are subject to quite promising research [1-51].It still remains that the worthwhile merging of these fields has a lot to undergo.One key factor over which success of this merging is based is correct protocol design approaches.In the current era of technology, such approaches are alleged as heuristic in nature and hence are unsuitable for implementation [89].Fine-tunings in middleware services and network architecture reforms are also expected [90, 91].A significantly better elaborated objective following such technological progress would be achieving realism in design and evaluation of wireless routing protocols [92].The output of such studies will also be more suitable for studies in predictability in ubicomp."Realism" is slow progressing since it creeps in every feature related to ubicomp.One such feature was scrutinised in a previous paper [20] to assess the trend of Maximum Energy Consumption Ratio (Max_R) readable for CBRs under different sets of node densities in ubicomp environments.This study was supported by the corresponding study of trends for each Max_R parameter of equations [36].To take in "realism" in knowledge of these trends, in this paper, the next probing needed is put forward as: "What are observable critical values in Max_R trends over varying node densities and trends of such critical values?"Such knowledge will step by step lead to the design of more realistic ubicomp scenarios which are better suited for more worthy testing of newly designed middleware components and communication protocols.This paper remains a follow-up of previous investigations [1-51].
