Abstract
Deploying real WSN testbed provides a realistic testing environment, and allows users to get more accurate test results. However, deploying real testbed is highly constrained by the available budget when the test needs a large scale WSN environment. By leveraging the advantages of both simulators and real testbed, an approach that integrates simulation environment and testbed can effectively solve both scalability and accuracy issues. In this paper, we present NetTopo for providing both simulation and visualization functions to assist the investigation of algorithms in WSNs. One case study is described to prove the effectiveness of NetTopo.
