Eboracum is an extensible modeling simulation framework for evaluation of reactive and adaptable wireless sensor networks (WSN), which provides high-level primitives for modeling platform and application aspects of WSNs. Combining application to environment-generated workload and computing/communication infrastructure, this framework allows to evaluate the efficiency of WSN configurations with regards to metrics that are meaningful to specific application domains and respective end-users. In this work, we demonstrate that Eboracum can be easily extended to support different types of nodes, events, as well as dynamic adaptability strategies. Moreover, this work discusses how to employ Eboracum to evaluate load balancing strategies and describe two different realistic scenarios, extending its primitives, for instance, to support mobile nodes and trigger events.
