Looking at themines the data was sourced from, Group 5’s source was never attempted to mine, and Group 6’ssource has gone through multiple companies and multiple bankruptcies in the last 20 years.While these groups were unsuccessful in designing a profitable mine, they were successful indemonstrating how to conduct a pre-feasibility study and designing mines that met safety,environmental, and engineering standards. The successful analysis of a mining property fulfillsthe capstone design requirements, regardless of the economic success of the property.SummarySix groups were given data for the senior capstone design project to perform a pre-feasibilityreport based on the

distance vector routing for ad-hoc networks. A sequencenumber is used to tag each route. A route with higher sequence number is more favorable than a routewith lower sequence number. However, if two routes have the same sequence number, the route withfewer hops is more favorable. In case of route failure, its hop number is set to infinity and its sequencenumber is increased to an odd number where even numbers are reserved only to connected paths.1.2 Dynamic Source Routing (DSR)DSR is an on-demand protocol. It is composed of route discovery and route maintenance. In routediscovery, a node tries to discover a route to destination if it has to send data to this destination and thereis currently no known route(s). A node broadcasts a route request
