Cooperative Reinforcement Learning for Routing in Ad-hoc Networks
(Thesis for the M.Sc. in Networks and Distributed Systems )- Thesis (PDF)
- BibTex entry for thesis
- Abstract (HTML) or Abstract (PDF)
- Slides from Thesis Presentation and Movie showing evolution of optimal routing policy (requires DivX)
- Resources cited by thesis: BibTeX or HTML format.
- I have implemented the routing protocol for NS-2 . I have also automated my experiments, running multiple simulations, storing and analysing the results using TCL scripts. SWARM for NS-2 (swarm.tgz). You need to download ns separately, and apply the patches in swarm.tgz. The version I used (2.26) is a little tricky to find now: ns-allinone-2.26.tar.gz. If someone would like to update the protocol to the latest version of ns, I'd be happy to host the updated code or link to it.

LaTeX Stuff
- Lyx is a good LaTeX editor.
- Example files for typesetting thesis in lyx: tcdthesis.sty, tcdthesis.lyx and currane03swarm.bib. The style file is a version of udthesis adapted for Trinity College Dublin and then edited by me so that it works with tex2pdf.
- Tex2Pdf / Lyx2Pdf does nice pdfs from latex, with hyperlinks, thumbnails etc.
