Hi Paul, thanks for your fast reply, so, for my application (which is tested only by Tossim) there is no "real" physical neighbors. in this case, is the diffusion still doing the same procedure as you detailed ? if it does, should I change my packet.addr from TOS_BCAST_ADDR to a list of node's neighbor (so i have n packets to send ?? or there is another way to handle this issue ? i even thought about broadcasting the packet then filter it at each node receiver ! your help will be kindly appreciated. best regards.
