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 …

One of the most critical and challenging processes is the provision of internet connectivity for
nodes in Wireless Mesh Networks (WMN) or mobile ad hoc networks (MANET). A wide …

Mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is an accumulation of mobile nodes that conFigure
themselves, forms momentary network dynamically and communicate with each other. The …

The connection of ad-hoc networks to the Internet is typically established via gateways. To
start an Internet connection, gateways have to be discovered by the mobile nodes within the …

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

When a node in an ad hoc network wants Internet access, it needs to obtain information
about the available gateways and it should select the most appropriate of them. In this work …

The connection of ad-hoc networks to the Internet is typically established via gateways. To
start an Internet connection, in a first step gateways have to be discovered by the mobile …

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 …

In this paper, we consider a mobile ad-hoc network (MANET) in which mobile nodes can
access the Internet via a stationary gateway node or access point. These gateways act as …

Looking for usable gateway is a process, which brings the biggest overhead, in MANET
accessing Internet. For controlling the routing overhead effectively, a gateway discovery …
