Topic summary

A master student researching wireless sensor networks (WSNs) seeks free simulation software capable of supporting clustering-based data aggregation protocols. The software must allow customization of message structures, creation of multiple message types, and programmable node transmission control, including dynamic receiver addressing. Due to sanctions and payment restrictions in Syria, commercial software is inaccessible, limiting options to free or educational versions. Recommendations include Contiki, an open-source real-time operating system designed for WSNs with simulation capabilities, available for free download. Additional suggestions emphasize using Linux-based open-source tools and compilers to develop custom simulation environments. Resources on Beowulf clustering and Raspberry Pi clusters were also shared, though more general to cluster computing than WSN simulation. The student inquires about Windows-supported programs, but no specific Windows-compatible WSN simulators were identified in the discussion.
