— In mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs), packets hop from a source to a series of forwarding nodes until they reach the desired destination. Defining the hop length to be the dista...
In this work we propose a QoS architecture for MANETs based on a probe-based distributed admission control mechanism and the IEEE 802.11e technology. Our aim is to improve peer-to...

Abstract Due to complexity and intractability reasons, most of the analytical studies on the reliability of communication paths in mobile ad hoc networks are based on the assumptio...
In mobile ad hoc networks, nodes have the inherent ability to move. Aside from conducting attacks to maximize their utility and cooperating with regular nodes to deceive them, mali...
