Geographic routing protocols are well suited to wireless sensor networks because of their modest resource requirements. A major limiting factor in their implementation is the requirement of location information. The virtual localization algorithm provides the functionality of geographic routing without any knowledge of node locations by constructing a virtual coordinate system. It differs from ...

A subjectively influenced router for vehicles in a fourjunction traffic system is presented. The router is based on a 3-layer Backpropagation Neural Network (BPNN) and a greedy routing procedure. The BPNN detects priorities of vehicles based on the subjective criteria. The subjective criteria and the routing procedure depend on the routing plan towards vehicles depending on the user. The routin...

Almost all existing routing and broadcasting protocols for ad hoc networks assume an ideal physical layer model. In this article, we present new greedy, localized algorithms for ad hoc wireless networks for maximizing probability of delivery, without acknowledgements, considering a realistic physical layer. Using the log normal shadowing model to represent a realistic physical layer, we use the...

The Internet’s tremendous value is undoubtedly dependent on its universal connectivity among a great number of heterogeneous networks that are distributed over the world. In recent years, while the Internet’s scale has expanded exponentially, the current status of its connectivity is still in the lack of comprehensive and formal study. In this paper, we contribute to the understanding of Intern...

Position-based routing has proven to be well suited for highly dynamic environment such as Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANET) due to its simplicity. Greedy Perimeter Stateless Routing (GPSR) and Greedy Perimeter Coordinator Routing (GPCR) both use greedy algorithms to forward packets by selecting relays with the best progress towards the destination or use a recovery mode in case such solutions ...
