Collective Multi Agent Deployment for Wireless Sensor Network Maintenance In order to compare the performance of the different algorithms, we developed a custom software simulator in Java, to represent the Wireless Network Maintenance Problem (WMP). The area of the simulated problem is an X over Y plane. Any number of nodes N, and agents M can be positioned in the area. Nodes have weights W associated with their importance. Within the total duration of the experiment E_t, we can induce any number of failures F on the nodes. The nodes which fail are chosen uniformly at random from N and the start time of each failure is chosen uniformly at random from (0,E_t).
The file Main.java holds all the parameters, runs the simulation, and outputs the results to the console.
