Over time, several routing protocols have been suggested for use in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs). Because of availability of so many MANETs routing protocols, network engineers and administrators face difficulties in identifying an appropriate routing protocol for a particular scenario. This challenge results from the unavailability of adequate technical analytic studies designed to examine…

The Nodes equipped with wireless technology cooperate in an autonomous and instantaneous way to form a mobile ad hoc network. It turns out that several factors make this type of network vulnerable to various security threats. Considering the sensitivity of user data routed through nodes, routing security should be a priority in mobile ad hoc…

The demand on livestock as a source of protein is increasing with the dramatic increase of world population which approaches 8 billion. As a result, the monitoring of the performance of livestock breeding is becoming essential. The technique which could increase livestock production and improve the efficiency of operation is digitalization of livestock management .…

VANET as a subclass of MANET is composed of a set of vehicles equipped with wireless transceivers, to build dynamic networks without the need of any pre-existing infrastructure. Over the last few decades, the area of routing protocols in VANETs has been extensively studied. Nevertheless, this area remains even more challenging due to some features…

Recently, opportunistic networks are considered as one of the most attractive developments of ad hoc mobile networks (MANETs) that have emerged thanks to the development of intelligent devices. Due to the mobility-related instability of the paths between nodes and due to the limited buffer and energy resources, the ultimate objective of routing protocols in opportunistic…
