—Characterizing the performance of ad hoc networks is one of the most intricate open challenges; conventional ideas based on information-theoretic techniques and inequalities hav...
Security in wireless ad hoc networks is hard to achieve due to the vulnerability of its links, limited physical protection, and the absence of a centralized management point. Cons...
—Wireless ad hoc networks are seldom characterized by one single performance metric, yet the current literature lacks a flexible framework to assist in characterizing the design...
Wireless and ad hoc networks often have local regions of highly intra-connected modules or communities of nodes against a backdrop of sparser longer-range intercommunity connectiv...
The lack of fixed infrastructure, both physical and organizational, and the highly dynamic nature of ad hoc networks, presents a major challenge in providing secure, authenticate...
