Ubiquitous computing environments are typically based upon ad hoc networks of mobile computing devices. These devices may be equipped with sensor hardware to sense the physical en...
: In Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs), all participating hosts are obligated to route and forward data for others to guarantee the availability of network applications and services....
In this paper we discuss the dynamic network characteristics of mobile ad hoc networks, and explore problems that arise when attempting to provide QoS support in this environment....
In this paper, we present a novel fully distributed version of a Mobile Backbone Network Topology Synthesis Algorithm (MBN-TSA) for constructing and maintaining a dynamic backbone...
