In the last years, many authors have addressed the problem of interconnecting mobile ad
hoc networks (MANET) to the Internet, via one or more attachment points called gateways …

The integration of Internet and ad hoc mobile network exhibit differences in their network
architecture. Thus, the interconnection is achieved by using Internet gateways, which acts as …

When an ad hoc network is connected to the Internet, it is important for the mobile nodes to
detect the available gateways providing access to the Internet. Therefore, a gateway …

One of the most important aspects a effecting the overall QoS performance of hybrid mobile
ad hoc networks is the efficient discovery of Internet gateways. So many previous papers …

To integrate mobile ad hoc networks with the fixed Internet, it is important for mobile nodes to
obtain the information of available gateways. To achieve this purpose, gateways periodically …

Although an autonomous mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is useful in many scenarios, work
on the integration of MANET with Internet is more desirable. In order to realize such …

Gateway Discovery in Internet-connected MANETs allows the stateless address
configuration as well as the update of the routes to external hosts. Similar to conventional ad …

Internet gateways are used to access the Internet services from the Mobile Ad Hoc Network
(MANET). Internet gateways need to be discovered and selected in an appropriate way to …

Ad hoc networking allows portable devices to establish communication independent of a
central infrastructure. The Integration of the MANETs and infrastructure networks such as …

Most of the research in the field of ad hoc network is limited to stand-alone isolated
networks. In order to facilitate the users with the huge pool of resources together with the …
