The service-oriented approach is known to be adequate for building distributed applications for mobile ad hoc networks, and a number of successful research works using this approa...
— During the last few years there has been a rapid development in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). To make the operations of a MANET more efficient, one approach is to construct...
Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) raise new challenges in designing protocols for solving the consensus problem. Among the others, how to design message efficient protocols so as to...
A good amount of research has been developed to support QoS issues in IEEE 802.11 ad hoc networks, such as QoS routing, MAC layer QoS support, and cross-layer QoS design. However,...
In ad hoc networks, devices have to cooperate in order to compensate for the absence of infrastructure. Yet, autonomous devices tend to abstain from cooperation in order to save th...
