/**
 * @ingroup mobility
 * @brief Random waypoint mobility model.
 *
 * Each object starts by pausing at time zero for the duration governed
 * by the random variable "Pause".  After pausing, the object will pick
 * a new waypoint (via the PositionAllocator) and a new random speed
 * via the random variable "Speed", and will begin moving towards the
 * waypoint at a constant speed.  When it reaches the destination,
 * the process starts over (by pausing).
 *
 * This mobility model enforces no bounding box by itself; the
 * PositionAllocator assigned to this object will bound the movement.
 * If the user fails to provide a pointer to a PositionAllocator to
 * be used to pick waypoints, the simulation program will assert.
 *
 * The implementation of this model is not 2d-specific. i.e. if you provide
 * a 3d random waypoint position model to this mobility model, the model
 * will still work. There is no 3d position allocator for now but it should
 * be trivial to add one.
