Abstract:<div>Self-organizing protocols and algorithms require knowledge of the underlying topology of the network. The topology can be represented by a graph or an adjacency matrix. In most practical cases, establishing the topology prior to a deployment is not possible because the exact placement of nodes and the existence of a reliable link between any two individual nodes cannot guaranteed. Therefore, this task has to be carried out after deployment. If the network is stand-alone and certain aspects are fixed… Show more
