Existing cellular networks are centrally managed and require a tremendous initial investment. With the advancement of new wireless technologies, the operators of traditional networks have to face new competition. New technologies make it possible to provid ...
Some forms of ad-hoc networks need to operate in extremely performance- challenged environments where end-to-end connectivity is rare. Such environments can be found for example in very sparse mobile networks where nodes ”meet” only occasionally and are ab ...
Existing position-based unicast routing algorithms which forward packets in the geographic direction of the destination require that the forwarding node knows the positions of all neighbors in its transmission range. This information on direct neighbors is ...
We consider the problem of rate-distortion (RD) optimized media streaming in unstructured peer-to-peer (P2P) overlay networks. We formulate the aforementioned problem as a distributed rate allocation problem. To solve the problem for all the participating ...
The vision of nomadic computing with its ubiquitous access has stimulated much interest in the Mobile Ad Hoc Networking (MANET) technology. However, its proliferation strongly depends on the availability of security provisions, among other factors. In the ...
Ad hoc networks are expected to be used in many different situations. A common characteristic among these situations is that the nodes have to cooperate with each other. This problem is particularly crucial, if each node is its own authority. Reckoning the ...

In self-organizing ad hoc networks, all the networking functions rely on the contribution of the participants. As a basic example, nodes have to forward packets for each other in order to enable multi-hop communication. In recent years, incentive mechanism ...
