One of the main aspects that affect the performance of hybrid ad hoc networks is the
discovery and selection of Internet gateways. Similar to conventional ad hoc route discovery …

The paper presents gateway discovery and routing schemes for ad hoc networks with NAT-
based Internet connectivity. To maintain a reachable gateway set (RGS) and up-to-date …

One of the key components affecting the overall performance of hybrid ad hoc networks is
the algorithm used to discover and select Internet gateways. We have analytically modeled …

Recently, the idea of integrating mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) and the Internet are
being explored to expand the reach of the Internet to MANET access networks. It will get us …

The need for maintaining gateway connectivity in an ad hoc access network is vital
considering the 80/20 ratio of Internet traffic. There are several proposals of how to integrate …

In the near future, vehicles are expected to become a part of the Internet, either as a terminal
in a mobile network, as a network node, or as a moving sensor (providing environmental …

Internet and multimedia services are widely-provided in All-IP based networks. There has
been growing demand for mobile users to get those services. The Wireless Mesh Network …

Nowadays, there is an important effort in the research community to connect mobile devices
in ad hoc networks with the Internet. In order to allow the connectivity to the Internet, a …

A mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is an autonomous collection of independent nodes
cooperating together to form an infrastructure less network spontaneously. For increasing …

The Internet access from vehicular networks is gaining great interest from the research
community. In fact, vehicles should be able to connect to the Internet and communicate with …
