Abstract

This paper studies a density driven virtual topography based publish/subscribe service for mobile ad hoc networks. Two variants of the service are presented and evaluated by extensive simulations; the first is very communication frugal while the latter trades a higher message overhead for faster latency. Both variants are also being compared to two other representative approaches for publish/subscribe in ad hoc networks, a dissemination tree based scheme and an efficient flooding based scheme. It is shown that the density-driven approach outperforms the others in most tested scenarios.
