Resource Discovery Using Spatio-temporal Information in Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks

by Ouri Wolfson, Bo Xu, Huabei Yin, Naphtali Rishe - WEB AND WIRELESS GEOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION SYSTEMS. VOLUME 3833 OF LECTURE NOTES IN COMPUTER SCIENCE , 2005
"... In this paper we examine the benefit of reports about resources in mobile ad-hoc networks. Each disseminated report represents information about a spatio-temporal event, such as the availability of a parking slot or a cab request. Reports are disseminated by a peer-to-peer broadcast paradigm, in whi ..."

A Review of Current Routing Protocols for Ad-Hoc Mobile Wireless Networks

by Elizabeth M. Royer, Chai-Keong Toh
"... An ad-hoc mobile network is a collection of mobile nodes that are dynamically and arbitrarily located in such a manner that the interconnections between nodes are capable of changing on a continual basis. In order to facilitate communication within the network, a routing protocol is used to discove ..."

Energy Conserving Routing in Wireless Ad-hoc Networks

by Jae-hwan Chang, Leandros Tassiulas , 2000
"... An ad-hoc network of wireless static nodes is considered as it arises in a rapidly deployed, sensor based, monitoring system. Information is generated in certain nodes and needs to reach a set of designated gateway nodes. Each node may adjust its power within a certain range that determines the set ..."

Ad-hoc On-Demand Distance Vector Routing

by Charles E. Perkins, Elizabeth M. Royer - IN PROCEEDINGS OF THE 2ND IEEE WORKSHOP ON MOBILE COMPUTING SYSTEMS AND APPLICATIONS , 1997
"... An ad-hoc network is the cooperative engagement of a collection of mobile nodes without the required intervention of any centralized access point or existing infrastructure. In this paper we present Ad-hoc On Demand Distance Vector Routing (AODV), a novel algorithm for the operation of such ad-hoc n ..."

Power-Aware Routing in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

by Mike Woo, Suresh Singh, C. S. Raghavendra , 1998
"... In this paper we present a case for using new power-aware metrics for determining routes in wireless ad hoc networks. We present five different metrics based on battery power consumption at nodes. We show that using these metrics in a shortest-cost routing algorithm reduces the cost/packet of rout ..."

A Survey on Position-Based Routing in Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks

by Martin Mauve, Jörg Widmer, Hannes Hartenstein - IEEE Network , 2001
"... We present an overview of ad-hoc routing protocols that make forwarding decisions based on the geographical position of a packet's destination. Other than the destination 's position, each node needs to know only its own position and the position of its one-hop neighbors in order to forwar ..."

to forward packets. Since it is not necessary to maintain explicit routes, position-based routing does scale well even if the network is highly dynamic. This is a major advantage in a mobile ad-hoc network where the topology may change frequently. The main prerequisite for position-based routing is that a

Sprite: A Simple, Cheat-Proof, Credit-Based System for Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks

by Sheng Zhong, Jiang Chen, Richard Yang - in Proceedings of IEEE INFOCOM , 2002
"... Mobile ad hoc networking has been an active research area for several years. How to stimulate cooperation among selfish mobile nodes, however, is not well addressed yet.

Geography-informed Energy Conservation for Ad Hoc Routing

by Ya Xu, John Heidemann, Deborah Estrin - ACM MOBICOM , 2001
"... We introduce a geographical adaptive fidelity (GAF) algorithm that reduces energy consumption in ad hoc wireless networks. GAF conserves energy by identifying nodes that are equivalent from a routing perspective and then turning off unnecessary nodes, keeping a constant level of routing fidelity. GA ..."

. GAF moderates this policy using application- and system-level information; nodes that source or sink data remain on and intermediate nodes monitor and balance energy use. GAF is independent of the underlying ad hoc routing protocol; we simulate GAF over unmodified AODV and DSR. Analysis and simulation

Location-Aided Routing (LAR) in mobile ad hoc networks

by Young-bae Ko, Nitin H. Vaidya - IN: INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON MOBILE COMPUTING AND NETWORKING (MOBICOM’98 , 1998
"... A mobile ad hoc network consists of wireless hosts that may move often. Movement of hosts results in a change in routes, requiring some mechanism for determining new routes. Several routing protocols have already been proposed for ad hoc networks. This paper suggests an approach to utilize location ..."

By using location information, the proposed Location-Aided Routing (LAR) protocols limit the search for a new route to a smaller “request zone” of the ad hoc network
