Overview and Goals Wireless communication technologies are
undergoing rapid advancements. The past few years have experienced
a steep growth in research in the area of wireless ad hoc networks.
The attractiveness of ad hoc networks, in general, is attributed to
their characteristics/features such as ability for
infrastructure-less setup, minimal or no reliance on network
planning and the ability of the nodes to self-organize and
self-configure without the involvement of a centralized n- work
manager, router, access point or a switch. These features help to
set up a network fast in situations where there is no existing
network setup or in times when setting up a fixed infrastructure
network is considered infeasible, for example, in times of
emergency or during relief operations. Even though ad hoc networks
have emerged to be attractive and they hold great promises for our
future, there are several challenges that need to be addressed.
Some of the well-known challenges are attributed to issues relating
to scalability, quality-of-service, energy efficiency and security.
