The pervasiveness of wireless communication recently gave mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) a significant researcher's attention, due to its innate capabilities of instant commu...
Context-aware applications rely on the ability to perceive the state of the surrounding environment. In this paper, we address a class of such applications where real-time guarant...
A Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) is an infrastructureless network of wireless mobile nodes that cooperate among each other to maintain connectivity of the network. In comparison to...
In an ad hoc network, mobile computers (or nodes) cooperate to forward packets for each other, allowing nodes to communicate beyond their direct wireless transmission range. Many ...
Recently, identity-based cryptographic (IBC) schemes have been considered to secure mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) due to their efficient key management properties. However, propo...
