The role of electronic learning technology in networks systems

Abstract EN

Recently, Electronic Learning Technology (ELT) has been widely spread as one of the new technologies in the world through using Information and Communication Technology (ICT).

One of the strategies of ELT is Simulation, for instance Military and Medical simulations that are used to avoid risks and reduce Costs.

A wireless communication network refers to any network not physically connected by cables, which enables the desired convenience and mobility for the user.

Wireless communication networks have been useful in areas such as commerce, education and defense.

According to the nature of a particular application, they can be used in home-based and industrial systems or in commercial and military environments.

Historically, Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANET) have primarily been used for tactical military network related applications to improve battlefield communications/ survivability.

MANET is a collection of wireless nodes that can dynamically be set up anywhere and anytime without using any pre-existing network infrastructure.

Mobility in wireless networks basically refers to nodes changing its point of attachment to the network.

Also, how the end terminals can move, there are many mobility models described the movement of nodes, many researchers use the Random Waypoint Mobility Model (RWPM).

In this paper, a Graphical User Interface (GUI) for RWPM simulation is introduced as a proposal to be used through ELT Project.

In the research area of computer and communications networks, simulation is a very useful technique for the behavior of networks.
