Monitoring of environment: A high performance method for radio coverage exploration

Monitoring of the environment is an increasing interest due to the changes in nature. Radio links enable to connect sensing devices in many organizations and ranges. This paper describes a software method for easing exploration of radio link possibilities, taking into account geographical topologies. The software uses massive parallel execution on GPUs and cellular automata in order to compute radio propagation. This is compatible with modeling of physical phenomena such as rain, flooding and so on.
