The Wireless Battle of the Mesh is an event that aims at bringing together people from across Europe to test the performance of different routing protocols for ad-hoc networks, like [[http://www.pps.jussieu.fr/~jch/software/babel/|Babel]], [[http://www.open-mesh.org|B.A.T.M.A.N.]], and [[http://olsr.org|OLSR]], and [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Static_routing | Static Routing]]. | The Wireless Battle Mesh is a non-commercial, volunteer-organized annual convention. |
