Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) are sets of autonomous mobile devices that have
capacities of self-configuring, self-setting parameters for data transmission in-network. Due …

The gateway selection is an essential issue in hybrid mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs).
Current independent and random selections without supporting routing negotiation protocol …

This paper proposes a QoS-based gateway selection mechanism to select an appropriate
gateway based on three QoS metrics: traffic load of gateway, path quality from MANET node …

M2M communication is an important component for future wireless networks. M2M systems
consist of a large number of devices that can operate with minimum or no human …

Machine-to-machine (M2M) communications and applications are expected to be a
significant part of the Internet of Things (IoT). However, conventional network gateways …

Following the tremendous success of 2G and 3G mobile networks and the fast growth of 4G,
