Abstract-- Multicast enables efficient large-scale content distribution and has become more and more popular in network service. Security is a critical issue for multicast because ...
In this paper, we consider the issue of constructing an energy-efficient virtual network backbone in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) for broadcasting applications using directiona...
—Beaconing is a primitive communication task in which every node locally broadcasts a packet to all its neighbors within a fixed distance. Assume that all communications proceed...
