Multicasting plays a crucial role in many applications of mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs).
It can significantly improve the performance of these networks, the channel capacity (in …

As the technology of mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) develops, many new kinds of
applications in this field emerge. The group-oriented services which take advantage of the …

A Mobile Ad-hoc NETwork (MANET) is composed of Mobile Nodes (MNs) without any
infrastructure. MNs selforganize to form a network over radio links. In this environment …

A mobile ad-hoc network (MANET) is composed of mobile nodes without any infrastructure.
Mobile nodes self-organize to form a network over radio links. The goal of MANETs is to …

An ad hoc network is a dynamic wireless network with the engagement of cooperative nodes
without a fixed infrastructure. Multicasting is intended for group communication that supports …

Advances in portable computing and wireless technologies are opening up exciting
possibilities for the future of wireless mobile networking. A mobile ad hoc network consists of …

We focus on one critical issue in mobile ad hoc networks that is multicast routing.
Advantages and limitations of existing routing protocols are illustrated. Optimal routes, stable …

Ad hoc wireless networks are self-organizing dynamic topology networks formed by a
collection of mobile nodes through radio links. Minimal configuration absence of …

Multicast routing in mobile ad hoc NETworks (MANETs) is a recent research topic. In this
paper, we present a performance study of three multicast protocols: ODMRP, ADMR, and …

The advent of ubiquitous computing and the proliferation of portable computing devices
have raised the importance of mobile and wireless networking. At the same time, the …
