In a mobile ad hoc network, a node moves dynamically without any centralized control. Each
node has its autonomous behavior to perform route discovery and packet forwarding. Ad hoc …

Ad hoc networks have a scalability problem. When the nodes of an ad hoc network increase
in number or mobility, the amount of control traffic for routing increases and could cause …

A mobile ad hoc network is formed by a cluster of mobile stations randomly located within a
certain area without the infrastructure of base stations. There have been many researches …

We consider an ad hoc network that can form a flat or a hierarchical architecture. Basically
all the mobile nodes form a flat network and some mobile nodes are able to be cluster …

In recent years, various types of ad hoc routing protocols have been studied in the mobile ad
hoc networks. Specifically, the cluster-based hierarchical routing algorithms have been …

This paper presents a novel swarm intelligence inspired routing algorithm, emergent ad hoc
routing algorithm (EARA), for mobile ad hoc networks. Based on the understanding of the …

The dynamic topology of a mobile ad hoc network poses a real challenge in the design of
hierarchical routing protocol, which combines proactive with reactive routing protocols and …

The on-demand routing schemes in mobile ad hoc networks are appealing because of the
lower routing overhead, compared with traditional proactive schemes. The on-demand …

Wireless ad hoc networks are dynamically organized by a collection of wireless mobile
hosts. In ad hoc networks, any pre-established wired or wireless infrastructures and the …

This paper presents a novel framework for dynamically organizing mobile nodes in wireless
ad hoc networks into clusters in which the probability of path availability can be bounded …
