As wireless networks become more prevalent, users will demand the same applications that are currently available in wired networks. Further, they will expect to receive a quality ...
Recently, identity-based cryptographic (IBC) schemes have been considered to secure mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) due to their efficient key management properties. However, propo...
Recent results indicate scalability problems for flat ad hoc networks. To address the issue of scalability, self-organizing hierarchical ad hoc architectures are being investigat...
This paper describes the Multicast Shared Tree Protocol MSTP that has been designed to support the delivery of multicast packets in a mobile ad hoc network. MSTP uses a shared tre...
We present a specification for a new, localized group membership service that maintains the membership status of adjacent nodes – called neighbors – in a mobile distributed s...
