In this paper we introduce a communication and mobility scenario generator for mobile multi-hop ad-hoc networks. The goal is to aid researchers in the design of ’realistic’ simulation scenarios which emulate real cities. Our approach combines a wide variety of well understood random mobility models with a graph based zone model, where each zone has its own mobility model. The combination of directed, weighted graphs, where the weights correspond to the flow of mobile nodes among zones, and zones with different mobility models, allows the researcher design more realistic simulation scenarios.}, owner = {guenes}, timestamp = {2007.08.23}, }
