Hi,

code).

I've just discovered the following document on Google:

Enhancing the 'Willingness' on the OLSR Protocol to Optimize
the Usage of Power Battery Power Sources Left
http://www.cscjournals.org/csc/manuscript/Journals/IJE/Volume2/Issue3/IJE-15.pdf

I thought I would point this out with regards the context of power
optimization and Willingness being discussed here.

I'm no expert on olsr however I would appreciate if someone could tell me if
the optimizations mentioned in this study are in line with those already
being implemented for olsr?

I'm mainly looking at contributing to olsr in the sphere of power management
and am just trying to get a heads up on how things stand....any pointers
would be deeply appreciated.

Thanks,
Jeetu
