In this paper, we consider the issue of constructing an energy-efficient virtual network backbone in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) for broadcasting applications using directiona...
Multicast applications for large-scale Mobile Ad hoc NETworks (MANETs) require an efficient and effective Quality of Service (QoS)-aware multicast model. The new requirements to ...

—Several recent research activities have started to recognize the relevant role of k-hop clustering in Mobile Ad hoc NETworks (MANET) to effectively support many relevant tasks, ...
A connected dominating set (CDS) for a graph G(V, E) is a subset V of V , such that each node in V - V is adjacent to some node in V , and V induces a connected subgraph. A CDS ha...
— Service discovery is an integral part of the ad hoc networking to achieve stand-alone and self-configurable communication networks. In this paper, we discuss possible service ...
