Abstract. Clustering is a widely used approach to ease implementation of various problems such as routing and resource management in mobile ad hoc networks (MANET)s. We propose a n...
OLSR is an optimization over classical link state protocols tailored for mobile ad hoc networks. In this paper, we propose the QOLSR protocol which includes quality parameters to ...
In this paper, a DHT-based routing protocol which integrates at the network layer both traditional direct routing, i.e. MANET routing, and indirect key-based routing, i.e. P2P rout...
We propose and analyze a scalable and efficient region-based group key management protocol for secure group communications in mobile ad hoc networks. For scalability and dynamic r...
The characteristics of mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) determine that the authentication approaches to protect routing and data packet transmission in MANETs should be lightweight...
