An ever-growing demand for coverage extension, higher data-rates and improved
connectivity has motivated the interconnection of mobile ad-hoc networks to fixed IP …

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 …

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 …

Ubiquitous Internet connectivity is to connect all devices to the Internet at any time and any
place. To achieve this ubiquitous Internet connectivity, we consider integrating the Internet …

In most practical applications, ad hoc mobile devices demand the access to wired hosts
