An Overview of Mobile Ad Hoc Networks for the Existing Protocols and Applications [PDF]
Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) is a collection of two or more devices or nodes or terminals with wireless communications and networking capability that communicate with each other without the aid of any centralized administrator also the wireless nodes that can dynamically form a network to exchange information without using any existing fixed network ...

Comparing the impact of mobile nodes arrival patterns in mobile ad hoc networks using poisson and pareto models [PDF]
Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs) are dynamic networks populated by mobile stations, or mobile nodes (MNs). Mobility model is a hot topic in many areas, for example, protocol evaluation, network performance analysis and so on.How to simulate MNs mobility is the problem we should consider if we want to build an accurate mobility model.

An ad hoc network is composed of nodes that may move arbitrarily and without the support of a stationary infrastructure. The dynamic nature of ad hoc networks makes it very challenging to realize routing and deliver data packets efficiently. This article discusses the challenges of ad hoc network routing, surveys existing routing algorithms, and ...

Localized Support for Injection Point Election in Hybrid Networks [PDF]
Ad-hoc networks, a promising trend in wireless technology, fail to work properly in a global setting. In most cases, self-organization and cost-free local communication cannot compensate the need for being connected, gathering urgent information just-in ...

An ad-hoc social network generation approach [PDF]
The use of social networks is still confined to infrastructure-based networks such as the Internet. However, many situations (conferences, fairs, etc.) may require the implementation and rapid deployment of an ad-hoc application for disseminating information: we call this type of application, Ad-hoc Social Network.

Secure ad hoc networking [PDF]
The ad hoc networking technology can enable novel civilian and military applications. However, ad hoc networking protocols are vulnerable to a wide range of attacks. The design of defense mechanisms is a challenging problem, especially in comparison to securing traditional, fixed-infrastructure networks.

Predictive geographic multicast routing protocol in flying ad hoc networks
In the past decades, the unmanned aerial systems have been utilized only for military operations. However, recently, the potential uses and applicability of unmanned aerial vehicles (commonly known as drones) in civilian application domains are becoming ...

Multimedia Content Distribution in Hybrid Wireless Networks using Weighted Clustering [PDF]
Fixed infrastructured networks naturally support centralized approaches for group management and information provisioning. Contrary to infrastructured networks, in multi-hop ad-hoc networks each node acts as a router as well as sender and receiver.

Information density–based energy-limited capacity of ad hoc networks
In this article, the inhomogeneous energy consumption is characterized by the concept of information density, which is defined as the number of bits per unit time passing through a specific region.

Topics in ad hoc and sensor networks [PDF]
The mobile ad hoc networking field has produced several important theoretical results, but in terms of real world implementation and industrial deployment, such net works are suffering scarce exploitation and low interest from the industry and users. This, as discussed in the arti cles of the April 2007 issue of this Series, was mainly due to a lack of
