Mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) consist of special kind of wireless mobile nodes which
form a temporary network without using any infrastructure or centralized administration …

In this chapter we discuss the properties and review the main instances of network routing
algorithms whose bottom-up design has been inspired by collective behaviors of social …

In this paper, we describe AntHocNet, an algorithm for routing in mobile ad hoc networks. It
is a hybrid algorithm, which combines reactive path setup with proactive path probing …

Mobile ad hoc networks are infrastructure-less networks consisting of wireless, possibly
mobile nodes which are organized in peer-to-peer and autonomous fashion. The highly …

Secure QoS routing algorithms are a fundamental part of wireless networks that aim to
provide services with QoS and security guarantees. In vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) …

In ant societies, and, more in general, in insect societies, the activities of the individuals, as
well as of the society as a whole, are not regulated by any explicit form of centralized control …

This work is a survey on the usage of machine learning techniques in wireless sensor
networks (WSNs) and mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs). Its focus lies on approaches for …

The natural world is enormous, dynamic, incredibly diverse, and highly complex. Despite the
inherent challenges of surviving in such a world, biological organisms evolve, self-organize …

Routing algorithms in mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) should match the special
characteristics of MANETs. It should be A self-configured, self-built and distributed routing …

In the past few years, there has been much research on the application of swarm
intelligence to the problem of adaptive routing in telecommunications networks. A large …
