This is done by setting the simulated date and the wanted latitude and longitude of every node involved. The simulator automatically handles the rest (see technical description). +WOSS can be integrated in any network simulator or simulation tool that supports C++. + +'woss-ns3' module will be automatically installed by the ns3 app store. + +It can also be manually installed by cloning this repository in the '/src' path + +woss-ns3 relies on the following libraries: +- WOSS +- NetCDF +- Acoustic Toolbox + +latest WOSS source code, installation instructions and related libraries can be found at http://telecom.dei.unipd.it/woss
