Abstract

In this paper, we present a comparative study in a MANET environment. MANET is specifically characterized by high mobility of network nodes and frequent changes of direct visibility. High dynamicity affects the design and implementation of distributed applications by significantly increasing their complexity, to consider not only routing and node configuration issues, but also the possible mobility of software components and the loss of direct connectivity during service provisioning. In this work, we estimate and compare the performance of on demand driven routing protocols (reactive) - Guided at requirement (counteractive) for ad-hoc networks. We use the file transfer protocol to measure the performance of our model. The protocol provides file downloading from a dynamically discovered service component available in a MANET locality, even if the server moves during file transfer.
