Quality of Information Analysis to Ensure Quality of Service

Abstract

In Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) proposing dynamically configurable multi-constrained Quality of Service (QoS) enabled routing is a tedious job because of the unpredictable nature of the network. To propose a routing algorithm in aligned with MANET behavior, it is important to understand network behavior in terms of packet delivery under different stack configuration. Available packet delivery data set under various stack parameter configurations in CRAWDAD is incorporated to take a decision on QoS enabled routing.  Prior to making use of available data, it is very much necessary to assess the quality of data with different quality assessment attribute. Dataset is assessed in the R environment and various assessment graphs are drawn based on the Quality assessment attribute indicating the quality of data set.
