Abstract

In this paper we propose a peer-to-peer service discovery protocol specially designed forMobile Ad-hoc NETwork (MANET) environment. The proposed Mobile Service Discovery Protocol (MSDP) uses a dynamic clustering algorithm to group nodes in a MANET, and utilizes Distributed Hash Tables (DHTs) to efficiently cache service information in a peer-to-peer manner. Simulation results under different scenarios show that MSDP has steady performance and is able to reduce message overhead efficiently.
