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...
Abstract: Reliable data transmission over wireless multi-hop networks, called ad hoc networks, has proven to be non-trivial. TCP (Transmission Control Protocol), a widely used end-...
MLS is a distributed location service to track the position of mobile nodes and to route messages between any two nodes. The lookup of nodes is achieved by searching in a hierarch...
The design of ad hoc mobile applications often requires the availability of a consistent view of the application state among the participating hosts. Such views are important beca...
This paper reevaluates the multicast protocols for MANETs in terms of energy efficiency and proposes a new robust multicast protocol, called Two-Tree Multicast (TTM). Multicast pr...
