Abstract-- In this paper, we present a completely distributed algorithm for partitioning a given set of mobile nodes into clusters. The proposed algorithm tries to reduce the amoun...
Abstract. Network security is considered one of the obstacles that prevent the wide deployment of ad-hoc wireless networks. Among many security problems, authentication is the most...
A secure MANET system, called SMANET, was developed that accepts only those packets whose MAC addresses are in the Linux iptable firewall rules. Detailed iptable set up and the pe...
Abstract. The RTS/CTS access scheme, designed to reduce the number of collisions in a IEEE 802.11 network, is known to exhibit problems due to masked nodes, the imbalance between t...
