a unit of magnetic field strength. It is equal to 10^-5 tesla.

gauss

A cgs (non-SI) unit of magnetic field strength, which approximates that of the earth's magnetic field at its surface (circa 0.5–1G). One gauss (G) = 1 line of flux/cm2. As larger magnetic fields are common in MRIs, gauss has been largely replaced by tesla (T), where 1 T = 10,000 G.

As a first step in this direction, in this paper, we study the impact of the Random Waypoint, City Section model, Manhattan and the Gauss Markov mobility models on the OptPathTrans algorithm (algorithm to find the sequence of most stable paths in an ad hoc network) and compare the performance with that of the algorithm to find the sequence of minimum hop paths.
