2. IntroductioN
• http://www.mannasim.dcc.ufmg.br/
• Mannasim comes with
• A sensor simulator that simulates a Carbon
monoxide and temperature sensor
• a script generator tool to generate tcl files for
testing the network

3. Classes in Mannasim
• SensorNode (sensorNode.h and .cc) extends MobileNode
• Battery (battery.h and .cc) extend EnergyModel
• DataGenerator (dataGenerator.h and .cc) extends TclObject
• TemperatureDataGenerator (temperatureDataGenerator.h
and .cc) extends DataGenerator
• TemperatureAppData (temperatureAppData.h and .cc )
extends AppData
• Processing (processing.h and .cc) extends TclObject

4. Classes in Mannasim
• SensedData (sensedData.h and .cc) extends AppData
• OnDemandData (onDemandData.h and .cc) extends SensedData
• OnDemandParameter(onDemandParameter.h and .cc) extends
AppData
• SensorBaseApp (sensorBaseApp.h and .cc) extends Application
• CommonNodeApp (commonNodeApp.h and .cc) extends
SensorBaseApp
• ClusterHeadApp (ClusterHeadApp.h and .cc) extends
SensorBaseApp

5. Classes in Mannasim
• Each class has their own variables and functions
• Users are requested to go through the source code
for understanding the algorithm for each class.

6. TCL Parameters
• Transport Protocol (TCP, UDP)
• Routing Protocol (DSR, TORA, LEACH, Directed Diffusion, DSDV and AODV)
• Medium Access Control (MAC) - MAC/802_11
• Link Layer - LL
• Physical Layer (either Crossbow Mica2 or 914MHz Lucent WaveLAN DSSS radio interface).
• Antenna An omnidirectional antenna, centered in node position and 1.5 meters above the ground is
provided.
• Radio Propagation (FreeSpace, Shadowing, ShadowingVis, TwoRayGround).
• Interface Queue (IFQ) (DropTail (default), DropTail/XCP, RED, RED/Pushback, RED/RIO, Vq and XCP.)
• IFQ Length - 50 bytes
• Battery (Mannasim Battery model is used.)
• Scenario Size (in meters with x and y length)

7. TCL - Access point details
• Access Point Number - Number of access points in the WSN.
One access point.
• Access Point Location - Seven options are provided: Center
(default), Down Left Corner, Down Right Corner, Grid, Random,
Up Left Corner and Up Right Corner
• Initial Energy - 100.0 joules default
• Access Point Application - Provides a new instance of an
access point in simulation scenario.
• Transmission Range - Communication range for access point
node. Default range is set to 100.0 meters.

8. TCL - Cluster Head
Configuration
• Cluster Head Number - Number of clusters, and consequently cluster heads in the WSN. 0 for
non hierarchical WSN
• Cluster Head Location - Random or Grid.
• Initial Energy - 10.0 joules default.
• Cluster Head Application - Provides a new instance of a cluster head in simulation scenario.
• Processing Type - Aggregate processing - Specifies how received data from cluster sons should
be processed
• Transmission Range - Default range is set to 70.0 meters.
• Dissemination Type - Dissemination type for processed data. Three kinds of dissemination are
provided: Continuous, On Demand and Programmed.
• Dissemination Interval - Time interval between two consecutive disseminations. Time defined in
seconds. On demand dissemination don't makes use of this parameter and for continuous
dissemination the interval should be as small as possible (0.001s for example). Default value is
set to 50.0 seconds.

9. Common node
• Common Node Number - 10 common nodes as default.
• Common Node Location - Random or Grid.
• Initial Energy - 10.0 joules.
• Common Node Application
• Processing Type - Aggregate processing
• Transmission Range - Default range is set to 50.0 meters.
• Dissemination Type - Continuous, On Demand and
Programmed (default).

10. Common Node
configuration
• Dissemination Interval - On demand dissemination don't makes use
of this parameter and for continuous dissemination the interval
should be as small as possible (0.001s for example). Default value
is set to 20.0 seconds.
• Sensing Type - Continuous, On Demand and Programmed
(default).
• Sensing Interval - Time interval between two consecutive data
sensing tasks. Time defined in seconds. On demand dissemination
don't makes use of this parameter and for continuous dissemination
the interval should be as small as possible (0.001s for example).
Default value is set to 5.0 seconds.

11. Common Node
configuration
• Data Generator Type - Temperature and carbon monoxide data
generators are provided within Mannasim Framework. These
generators create data based on Gaussian Distribution.
• Data Average Value - Average value used in Gaussian
Distribution equation. Default value is set to 25.0 celsius degrees.
• Data Standard Deviation - Standard Deviation value used in
Gaussian Distribution equation. Default value is set to 5.0 celsius
degrees.
• Maximum Data Value - Generated data maximum allowed value.
This parameter is used in event-driven WSN applications. Default
value is set to 30.0 celsius degrees

12. To Compile
• Unzip or untar the mannasim.tar.gz to ~ns-2.35/
folder
• Open the folder mannasim and copy the files from
the ns-modified-files/ folder in the following
location. (as specified in the next slide)

13. To Compile
• Copy the files from the ~mannasim/ns-modified-files/ and paste it to the
following location of NS2.35
• ns-allinone-2.35/ns-2.35/apps/udp.cc
• ns-allinone-2.35/ns-2.35/common/ns-process.h
• ns-allinone-2.35/ns-2.35/common/packet.cc
• ns-allinone-2.35/ns-2.35/common/packet.h
• ns-allinone-2.35/ns-2.35/Makefile.in
• ns-allinone-2.35/ns-2.35/tcl/lib/ns-default.tcl
• ns-allinone-2.35/ns-2.35/tcl/lib/ns-lib.tcl

14. To Compile
• Once done, open the terminal and go to the
~ns-2.35/ folder and do the following commands
one by one
• ./configure
• make clean
• make

15. To Run the Mannasim Files
• From the terminal,
• Go to the mannasim folder
• cd scriptGeneratorTool and type
• ./msg-linux.sh
• Configure the network as recommended in the previous
slides (Tcl Parameters). Once Tcl file is generated, run
the program using
• ns filename.tcl
