Abstract

In this paper we compare models developed in two formal frameworks, Uppaal and Event-B, for the Optimised Link State Routing (OLSR) protocol. OLSR is one of the proactive routing protocols used in Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANETs) and Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs). We also describe different aspects of the Uppaal and Event-B formalisms. This leads to a more general comparison of both formalisms, considering the following criteria: their specification languages, their update of variables mechanism, their modularity methods, their verification strategies, their scalability potentials and their real-time modelling capabilities. Based on it, we provide several guidelines for when to use Uppaal or Event-B for formal modelling and analysis.
