The design and simulation of reliable wireless networks in dynamic environments

We report on issues regarding the design and maintenance of multihop wireless networks in which every node is able to support only a limited number of point-to-point links to other nodes in its neighbourhood. The design process aims to identify stable network topologies for which network performance is optimised as far as possible.
