Cross-layer mechanism, for which a protocol locating at a given layer uses information issued from other layers, may enhance the mobile networks performance. Some of those mechanis...
With the proliferation of wireless devices, mobile ad hoc networking (MANET) has become a very exciting and important technology due to its characteristics of open medium and dyna...
In this paper, we proposed an IP Local Link-Protection (IPLLP) scheme based on the characteristic of shortest-path routing in IP networks. Our scheme working in an intra-area routi...
We study methods for reducing the cost of secure link state routing. In secure link state routing, routers may need to verify the authenticity of many routing updates, and some ro...
—Opportunistic networks represent one of the most interesting evolution of MANET paradigm. Generally speaking, opportunistic networks enable user communication in environments wh...
