Minimal configuration and quick deployment of ad hoc networks make it suitable for numerous applications such as emergency situations, border monitoring, and military missions, e...
Energy conservation is a critical issue in wireless ad hoc networks since batteries are the only energy source to power the nodes. One major metric for energy conservation is to r...
Most of the routing protocols in wireless ad hoc networks, such as DSR, assume nodes are trustworthy and cooperative. This assumption renders wireless ad hoc networks vulnerable to...
Securing ad hoc networks in a fully self-organized way is effective and light-weight, but fails to accomplish trust initialization in many trust deficient scenarios. To overcome t...
