The characteristics of mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) determine that the authentication approaches to protect routing and data packet transmission in MANETs should be lightweight...
As wireless networks become more prevalent, users will demand the same applications that are currently available in wired networks. Further, they will expect to receive a quality ...
In mobile ad-hoc networks, the multicast paradigm is of central importance. It can help to save scarce medium bandwidth if packets are to be delivered to multiple destinations. We...
The cooperation of wireless nodes in ad hoc networks is crucial to ensure the proper working of the whole network due to the absence of infrastructure. Misbehaving nodes can drama...
Recent research shows that significant energy saving can be achieved in wireless sensor networks by using mobile elements (MEs) capable of carrying data mechanically. However, the ...
