Wireless Sensor Networks application spans from the military applications into almost every field we can think of. Several simulation tools are readily available, among them the J-Sim, a java-based simulator with growing interest by research and network developers alike. We propose to enhance J-Sim functionality with a Guided User Interface for Wireless Sensor Networks that dramatically increases the user-friendliness of the simulator. Also, we provide a free download web page for everyone to benefit.
