The Mobile Ad-Hoc Network (MANET) incorporates a collaborative networking scenario,
where dynamic host movement results in frequent topology changes. In MANET, nodes …

Self-organizing networks such as wireless ad hoc networks present a number of problems
and paradoxes towards trustworthiness and consistency of the network. Lack of cooperation …

Security is a crucial factor in Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANET) where inaccessible
environments cause assorted categories of security intimidations to provide the malicious …

The presence of mobile nodes in any wireless network can affect the performance of the
network, leading to higher packet loss and increased energy consumption. However, many …

In mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs), nodes are mobile in nature. Collaboration between
mobile nodes is more significant in MANETs, which have as their greatest challenges …

Many existing studies just considered that nodes in a Mobile Ad Hoc NETwork (MANET)
would fully cooperate to forward packets for one another. However, this assumption does not …

In mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs), selfish behavior is observed when nodes fail to
forward data packets which are actually intended. This is generally assumed to be a kind …

In MANETs, most network functions count on node cooperation. Forwarding packets of other
nodes is a basic example of such cooperation. However, nodes may not be interested in …

Game theory may offer a useful mechanism to address many problems in mobile ad hoc
networks (MANETs). One of the key concepts in the research field of such networks with …

In self-organized mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs), network functions rely on cooperation
of self-interested nodes, where a challenge is to enforce their mutual cooperation. In this …
