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 …

The communication range of devices within a mobile ad hoc network is inherently restricted.
One way of enhancing the communication range of a mobile ad hoc network, is to …

Mobile users are expected to demand access to the Internet anywhere and anytime. In a
MANET context, a device which is about to connect to external hosts needs the route to the …

Hybrid Wireless Networks are emerging as a promising new technology, benefiting from
both fixed and ad-hoc networks technologies whilst alleviating some critical problems in …

The demand for any time anywhere connectivity has increased rapidly with the tremendous
growth of the Internet in the past decade and due to the huge influx of highly portable …

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 …

One of the most important aspects affecting the overall performance of hybrid ad hoc
networks is the efficient selection of Internet gateways. We have analytically modeled …

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 …
