Routing appears to be the most well studied aspect in ad hoc networking. However, existing
routing protocols usually do not take link lifetime into account for route establishment or …

Some ad hoc protocols allow the discovery and/or storage of multiple routes to the same
destination node. The selection of the path to utilize is commonly based on the criterion of …

One wireless network architecture that has received a lot of attention recently is the mobile
ad hoc network (MANET). It is attractive because the network can be quickly deployed …

Node mobility in ad hoc networks makes the problem of efficiently routing packets quite
difficult. Several authors have developed routing protocols for these types of networks but …

In mobile ad hoc networks, node mobility causes links between nodes to break frequently,
thus terminating the lifetime of the routes containing those links. An alternative route has to …

One of the main design constraints in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) is that they are
power constrained. Hence, every effort is to be channeled towards reducing power. More …

Reliability is a very important issue in Mobile Ad hoc NETworks (MANETs). Shortest paths
are usually used to route packets in MANETs. However, a shortest path may fail quickly …

This paper presents a new routing approach to extend the effective lifetime of mobile ad hoc
networks (MANET) considering both residual battery energy of the participating nodes and …

Greedy and contention-based forwarding schemes were proposed for mobile ad hoc
networks (MANETs) to perform data routing hop-by-hop, without prior discovery of the end-to …

A mobile ad hoc network has a dynamic topology. A route probably fails if intermediate
nodes of the route have high mobility. In order to choose reliable nodes in a route, we define …
