One of the most evident characteristics of an ad hoc ubiquitous computing environment is the dynamism of connections. Due to the mobility of nodes, paths between communicating pee...
We examine the performance of the TCP protocol for bulkdata transfers in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). We vary the number of TCP connections and compare the performances of thr...
Smart antennas are expected to enhance scalability in ad hoc networks. This paper at first evaluates three directional MAC protocols, DMAC, MMAC and SWAMP as well as the omni-dir...
We present the Ad-hoc On-demand Secure Routing (AOSR) protocol, which uses pairwise shared keys between pairs of mobile nodes and hash values keyed with them to verify the validity...
—Ad hoc networking will become a major technology for wireless connectivity beside the multimedia necessity within the next few years. There are too many applications where one-t...
