Abstract

Self-organizing mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) allow devices to share their services and resources. MANET applications as diverse as multi-player games, disaster recovery, cooperative computing and mobile patient monitoring explain the high interest in these dynamic systems. However, the formation and management of MANET are challenging tasks due to network's features like mobility, heterogeneity, limited resources and feeble communication. This paper presents a simple, cost-effective and resilient algorithm for the basic tasks of MANET creation and management.
