Service advertisement and discovery is an important component for mobile ad hoc communications and collaboration in ubiquitous computing environments. The ability to discover services offered in a mobile ad hoc network is the major prerequisite...

In mobile ad hoc networks, route selection is one of the most important issues that is studied in these networks as a field of research. Many articles trying to provide solutions to choose the best path in which the important parameters...

Due to limitations of MANETs such as dynamic topology and energy consumption and control overhead, network clustering is one of the promising solutions. Most of clustering algorithms are too complicated and not considering ...

Abstract— Clustering algorithm used in CBRP is a variation of simple lowest-ID clustering algorithm in which the node with a lowest ID among its neighbors is elected as the Cluster-head. Neglecting mobility and energy for ...

The characteristics of mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) such as dynamic changing topology,

lack of centralized management, and the vulnerability of links, have made MANETs security a real concern.

It is notable that security...
