Hi,
I ran the Surge application on TinyViz for a 5 node and 10 node network and came accross some very interesting cases. In a 5 node network, all the nodes were sending their data directly to node 0 whereas in a 10 node network, I actually saw multi-hop routes. But the routes were very strange.
One of the nodes that was close to node 0, was actually sending its data to a far-away node as the intermediate hop. Why doesnt it send it directly to node 0?
I noticed an even more interesting case. Node 1 which is near to node 0 was acting as an intermediate hop for node 4 (which is also close to node 0). Now, I moved node 1 in such a way that node 0 was between nodes 1 & 4. Even after allowing the simulation to run for a long time and after many broadcast messages, node 4 "crossed" node 0 and still used node 1 as its next hop to node 0.
I am totally confused on how does the nodes select their parent to send a message to the base station. Can someone please help me how to figure out the working of Surge application.
Thanks,
Yogesh.
