To overcome the partial visibility problem that Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks (MANET) exhibit [1] data link-level (level 2 OSI) routing protocols must be considered. Examples of protocols in use are the Ad Hoc On-Demand Distance Vector (AODV) [2] routing protocol -reactiveand the Destination-Sequenced Distance Vector (DSDV) [3] routing protocol -proactive-, and reviews of other routing protocols are a...

Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) is a self-configuring network of mobile nodes without any support of centralized administration. Now a days, the use of mobile devices has increased very rapidly and thus multimedia applications based on audio and video transmission is widely in use. The major issue in multimedia based applications is Quality Of services (QoS). Although the number of researchers ha...

Recent advances in wireless networks have prompted much research attention in the area of wireless sensor network (WSN). Sensor network consists of hundreds to thousands of low power multifunctioning sensor nodes operating in hostile environment with limited computational and sensing capabilities. These sensor devices are susceptible to various attacks such as selective forwarding or sinkhole a...

Ad-hoc On-demand Distance Vector (AODV) provides scalable and effective solution for packet routing in mobile wireless ad hoc networks, however, the path generated by this protocol may derivate far from optimal because of inconsideration of node power ,load unbalance and link state,resulting in energy consumption of each nods is imbalanced and reduce the lifetime of whole networks. Based on the...

With the rising interest of expedient, safe, and high-efficient transportation, vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) have turned into a critical technology in smart transportation systems. Because of the high mobility of nodes, VANETs are vulnerable to security attacks. In this paper, we propose a novel framework of software-defined VANETs with trust management. Specifically, we separate the forw...

Vehicular Ad-Hoc Networks (VANETs) have recently gained considerable attention from both research and industry communities. One of the challenges posed by the study of VANETs is the definition of routing protocols design. In this paper, a realistic simulation environment is developed based on Mobility model generator for Vehicular networks (MOVE) and Network Simulator (NS2). The performance of ...

VANET are considered to be the special application of infrastructure-less wireless Mobile ad-hoc network (MANET). In these networks, vehicles are used as nodes. Recently Many researches has been done on this topic as a proof of which US government has recently granted permission for vehicle to vehicle communication accepting that it will be very helpful for minimizing road accidents which costs...
