Abstract
In our previous work, we implemented a Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) based simulation system for node placement in WMNs, called WMN-PSO. Also, we implemented a simulation system based on Hill Climbing (HC), called WMN-HC. Then, we implemented a hybrid simulation system based on PSO and HC, called WMN-PSOHC. In this paper, we evaluate the performance of WMNs by using WMN-PSOHC considering different number of iterations. Simulation results show that, the simulation time increases with increasing the number of iterations. When the number of iterations increase twice, the simulation time increases more than twice. Thus, we conclude that the calculation time and quality of solution is a trade-off relation. In this considered scenario, 400 iterations are enough.
