Mobile ad hoc networking has been a fast growing research area
for the last few years. The need for a network when there is no
fixed infrastructure is no more limited to military and
emergency applications; ad hoc networks can include private and
public applications as well. In ad hoc networks, wireless mobile
computing devices can perform critical network topology
functions that are normally the responsibility of the routers
within the Internet infrastructure. Although, there are many
kinds of protocols available today that are supported by fixed
network infrastructure, they need adaptation before they can be
useful in ad hoc networks no longer connected to the Internet
infrastructure.
