results when the simulation results are calculated from relatively
short simulation duration.
In the following, we present three possible solutions to avoid this
initialization problem is presented. First, the locations of the mobile
nodes can be saved after a simulation has executed long enough to be
past this initial high variability, and can be used as the initial starting
point of the mobile nodes in all future simulations. Second, initially
the mobile nodes can be distributed in a manner that maps to a distri-
bution more common to the model. For example, initially placing the
mobile nodes in a triangle distribution may result in the distribution
of the nodes in the random waypoint mobility model more accurately ...
