The publish/subscribe model of communication provides sender/receiver decoupling and selective information dissemination that is appropriate for mobile environments characterized ...
IEEE 802.11 MAC, called the Distributed Coordination Function (DCF), employs carrier sensing to effectively avoid collisions, but this makes it difficult to maximally reuse the sp...
— Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANETs) are seen as an essential technology to support future Pervasive Computing Scenarios and 4G networks. In a MANET, efficient support of multipoint...
– In this paper, we propose an auction mechanism for routing in mobile ad hoc networks with selfish nodes. Our approach is to promote bidding for end-to-end routes, as opposed to...
Abstract--We present an analytical model combining geometric and stochastic approaches to describe the effects of attacks and countermeasures on MANETs. In particular, we focus on ...
