Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) consists of mobile devices which are connected by
means of wireless links. Dynamic topology of the network and limited resources are the main …

Abstract A Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) is a collection of wireless mobile nodes forming
a temporary network without the need for base stations or any other preexisting network …

Clustering has been used as a fundamental tool to improve scalability in large wireless ad
hoc networks. Techniques based on clustering, such as routing, self-organization, context …

MANET does not require any fixed infrastructure, thus it fits well in disaster rescue and
military operations. However, when a node has no or insufficient energy to function …

In this chapter a description of several techniques that are proposed for minimizing the
routing overhead in ad hoc routing protocols is discussed. Different algorithms are classified …
