Wireless communication is essential for search and rescue operations in the aftermath of
natural disasters. In post-disaster scenarios, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) can be used …

Mobile wireless networks frequently possess, at the same time, both dense and sparse
regions of connectivity; for example, due to a heterogeneous node distribution or radio …

Communication networks are traditionally assumed to be connected. However, emerging
wireless applications such as vehicular networks, pocket-switched networks, etc., coupled …

The blackhole attack is one of the simplest yet effective attacks that target the AODV
protocol. Blackhole attackers exploit AODV parameters in order to win route requests, and …

Delay/Disruption-Tolerant Network (DTN) protocols typically address sparse intermittently
connected networks whereas Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) protocols address the fairly …

Powerful personal devices provide the basis for ad-hoc networking among mobile users.
Delay-tolerant Networking (DTN) enables such communication in spite of low node density …

A challenge faced by smart grid systems is providing highly reliable transmissions to better
serve different types of electrical applications and improve the energy efficiency of the …

The Internet is at a historic inflection point where mobile, wireless devices are becoming so
dominant that core architectural changes are necessary to efficiently support them. This …

Although several years have passed since its first introduction, the significance of Delay-
Tolerant Networking (DTN) remains evident, particularly in challenging environments where …

In this paper, we study how to adapt the routing according to dynamic network conditions in
wireless ad hoc networks. We present a method that dynamically chooses routing agent …
