In the last decade, bio-inspired self-organising mechanisms have been applied to different
domains, achieving results beyond traditional approaches. However, researchers usually …

Networking at any time and any place paves the way for a large number of possible
applications in ad hoc networks, from disaster relief in remote areas to network extension …

Recently, cooperative communications, in the form of having each node equipped with a
single antenna and exploit spatial diversity via some relay node's antenna, is shown to be a …

Route planning for fully electric vehicles (FEVs) must take energy efficiency into account due
to limited battery capacity and time-consuming recharging. In addition, the planning …

Broadcasting is a commonly used communication primitive needed by many applications
and protocols in mobile ad hoc networks (MANET). Unfortunately, most broadcast solutions …

Ad hoc wireless multi-hop networks (AHWMNs) are communication networks that consist
entirely of wireless nodes, placed together in an ad hoc manner, ie with minimal prior …

In this paper we consider the problem of distributed fault diagnosis in Wireless Sensor
Networks (WSNs). The proposed Fault Diagnosis Algorithm (FDA) aims to handle both …

This paper presents an effective algorithm for selecting cluster heads in mobile ad hoc
networks using ant colony optimization. A cluster in an ad hoc network consists of a cluster …

Organization, scalability and routing have been identified as key problems hindering viability
and commercial success of mobile ad hoc networks. Clustering of mobile nodes among …

File and data distribution can be easily classified as one of the basic uses of networks. With
uses ranging from Short Message Service (SMS) to program updates, from micro-blogging …
