To solve the scalability issue of ad hoc network, a new cluster maintenance protocol is proposed. Clusters may change dynamically, reflecting the mobility of the underlying networ...
There are many essential applications for quorum systems in ad-hoc networks, such as that of location servers in large-scale networks. Existing research proposes many approaches t...
During the last decade, many works were devoted to improving the performance of relaying techniques in ad hoc networks. One promising approach consists in allowing the relay nodes ...
