In mobile ad hoc networks, topology changes very frequently due to node's mobility.
Frequent change in topology increases traffic signaling that may arise energy and scalability …

No previous infrastructure is required to rapidly deploy mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs).
Various applications rely on them, such as medical, Army. MANETs deployed on large-scale …

The prolonged network lifetime is a major concern in Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANET).
Clustering is one of the key solutions to improve the network life time and also stabilize the …

A mobile Ad-hoc network consists of dynamic nodes that can move freely. These nodes
communicate with each other without a base station. In this paper, we propose a …

Clustering approach is an important research topic for MANETs and widely used in efficient
network management, hierarchical routing protocol design, network modeling, Quality of …

Mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) are a specific kind of wireless networks that can be
quickly deployed without pre-existing infrastructures. They are used in different contexts …

Large and dense mobile ad hoc networks often meet scalability problems, the hierarchical
structures are needed to achieve performance of network such as cluster control structure …

Mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is a gathering of self‐ruling mobile nodes in which ad hoc
network framed without settled foundation. Dynamic topology property of MANET may …

In this paper, we demonstrate how simulated annealing algorithm can be applied to
clustering algorithms used in ad hoc networks; specifically our recently proposed weighted …

In an Ad hoc sensor network, nodes have characteristics of limited battery energy, self-
organization and low mobility. Due to the mobility and heterogeneity of the energy …
