In this paper, we tackle one fundamental problem in Underwater Sensor Networks (UWSNs):
robust, scalable and energy efficient routing. UWSNs are significantly different from …

In this paper, we present an industrial development of a wireless sensor network technology
called OCARI: optimization of communication for ad hoc reliable industrial networks. It …

Large-scale underwater ad-hoc networks (UANET) and underwater sensor networks
(UWSN) are novel networking paradigms to explore the uninhabited oceans. However, the …

Introducing node mobility into the network also introduces new anonymity threats. This
important change of the concept of anonymity has recently attracted attentions in mobile …

The diversity of the applications supported by wireless ad hoc and sensor networks explain
the success of these networks. However, their energy constrained nature requires the use of …

Wireless ad hoc networks are autonomous, self-configurating and adaptive. Thus, such
networks are excellent candidates for military tactical networks, where their ability to be …

Energy efficiency is a key issue in wireless ad hoc and sensor networks. Several directions
have been explored to maximize network lifetime, among them energy efficient routing. In …

Abstract Large-scale Underwater Wireless Sensor Network (UWSN) is a novel networking
paradigm to explore the uninhabited and complex oceans. However, the characteristics of …

Mobile ad hoc networks have very attractive intrinsic qualities. However they will be adopted
only if they are able to support applications with QoS requirements. They should provide a …

We present a hybrid routing protocol for both pure and hybrid ad hoc networks which uses
the mechanisms of swarm intelligence to select next hops. Our protocol, Ad hoc Networking …
