Peer-To-Peer (P2P) and Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs) share the same key concepts of self-organization and decentralization, and both aim to provide connectivity in a completely decentralized manner. Routing algorithms for MANETs can potentially benefit from the combination with P2P overlay routing algorithms. Some efforts have been made to integrate P2P overlay into MANETs, but all work is based...
Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) is the cooperative engagement of a collection of wireless mobile nodes without the support of any centralized access point or existing infrastructure. The use of virtual topologies is a good alternative to build wireless multi-hop networks. It aims to maintain a topology that optimizes broadcasting or network performances. The problem is to determine an appropriate topology...
Multi-Point Relaying (MPR) is a well-known relay pruning algorithm that has proved to be useful for efficient dissemination in Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs). But this technique may be useful for other tasks in MANET link-state routing as well. In particular, the approach is attractive for the selection of topology information to be flooded across the network. Requirements for such topology selection...
This paper presents a novel Virtual Circle Combined Straight Routing (VCCSR) algorithm for a mobile sink to collect data in wireless sensor networks. Tree-based routing is a common scheme to collect data from sensors to a sink. Most of the previous proposed tree-like aggregation approaches are not suitable for mobile sink, because the routes between sink and sensors have to be reconstructed when a...
With the rapid development of wireless communications and positioning systems, tracking the positions of moving objects is becoming more and more important. The TPR-tree and its variants are the dominant choices for indexing the current and anticipated near-future positions of moving objects, but the TPR-tree exhibits lower performance in the condition of frequent updates. In this paper, we propose...
Recent proposals in multicast overlay networks have demonstrated the importance of exploiting underlying network topology data to construct efficient overlays. While they avoid virtual coordinates embedding and fixed landmarks measurements, these topology-aware proposals often rely on incremental and periodic refinements to improve each node's position in the delivery tree. We claim that there are...
