BonnMotion: A MOBILITY SCENARIO GENERATION AND ANALYSIS TOOL

BonnMotion is a Java software which creates and analyzes mobility scenarios and is most commonly used as a tool for the investigation of mobile ad hoc network characteristics. The scenarios can also be exported for several network simulators, such as ns-2, ns-3, GloMoSim/QualNet, COOJA, MiXiM, and ONE. BonnMotion is being jointly developed by the Communication Systems group at the University of Bonn, Germany, the Toilers group at the Colorado School of Mines, Golden, CO, USA, and the Distributed Systems group at the University of Osnabrück, Germany. Several mobility models are supported, namely

• the Random Waypoint model,
• the Random Walk model,
• the Gauss-Markov model,
• the Manhattan Grid model,
• the Reference Point Group Mobility model,
• the Disaster Area model,
• the Random Street model,
• and more.

Installing BonnMotion

 Just run the "install" script from the BonnMotion directory (since BonnMotion v2.0, "compile" is run automatically at the end of the install script).
On Linux:

1. BonnMotion requires a Java Runtime Engine (JRE) and a Java Development Kit (JDK).Open the terminal and type
   
   sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jre openjdk-7-jdk 
   
   

1. Unzip BonnMotion archive: unzip bonnmotion-2.0.zip
2. Change directory to BonnMotion directory:such as /usr/local/src unzip bonnmotion-2.0.zip
   
   cd bonnmotion-2.0/
3. Run install script:
   
   ./installYou will be queried as follows: Please enter your Java binary path [/usr/bin]:
   
   simply hit return.
4. Run BonnMotion from "bin" folder: cd bin && ./bm
   
   You may next see the following:

 Could not find the main class: edu.bonn.cs.iv.bonnmotion.run.BM. Program will exit.

There are two errors above:

1. The "Unsupported major.minor version 51.0" error is due to using a different version JRE than JDK. You probably installed openjdk-7-jdk but note that it also installs openjdk-6-jre and sets version 6 to the default. You can change this by running 'sudo update-alternatives --config java' and selecting '/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-i386/jre/bin/java' which matches your compilation environment.
2. your system could not find the classes provided by BonnMotion; this is a problem with the Java CLASSPATH.
