today, one of the new technologies in the modern era is vehicular ad-hoc network which has takenenormous attention in the recent years. because of rapid topology changing and frequent disconnectionmakes it difficult to design an efficient routing protocol for routing data between vehicles, called v2v orvehicle to vehicle communication and vehicle to roadside infrastructure, called v2i. designin...

Abstract- Efficient message delivery in city environment is required to ensure driver’s safety and passenger’s comfortability. In cities of developed nations, routing of data in vehicular Ad hoc Network (VANET) faces many challenges such as radio obstacles, mobility constraints and uneven nodes distribution. These factors primarily makes communication between vehicles complex. To overcome and t...

Recently, underwater Wireless Sensor Networks (UWSNs) attracted the interest of many researchers and the past three decades have held the rapid progress of underwater acoustic communication. One of the major problems in UWSNs is how to transfer data from the mobile node to the base stations and choosing the optimized route for data transmission. Secure routing in UWSNs is necessary for packet d...

The packet delivery ratio and throughput in Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs) depend on the network connectivity and degrade as the connectivity decreases. A delay-tolerant approach increases the packet delivery ratio in partially connected networks. In the previous studies, the packet lifetime and the vehicle's packet carry time are determined to maximize the packet delivery ratio in partiall...

mobile-ad-hoc-networks (manets) are self-configuring networks of mobile nodes, which communicate through wireless links. the infrastructure of a mobile ad hoc network (manet) has no routers for routing, and all nodes must share the same routing protocol to assist each other when transmitting messages. the main issues in manets include the mobility of the network nodes, the scarcity of computati...

This study presents a forwarding nodes selection scheme for zone-based multicast routing protocols to reduce transmission routing control overhead. The feasibility of the proposed scheme is demonstrated over mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs), and compared with the multicast zone routing protocol (MZR) in terms of the routing control overhead and packet delivery ratio. In this work, the proposed s...

in recent years mobile networks have expanded dramatically, compared with other wireless networks. routing protocols in these networks are designed with the assumption that there is no attacker node, so routing protocols are vulnerable to various attacks in these networks. in this paper, we review the network layer attacks and then we simulate the impact of black hole attack on ad hoc on demand...

Vehicular Adhoc Networks (VANETs) are special type of Mobile Adhoc networks (MANETs) where node movement is in pre ordered fashion but with high velocity in comparison to MANETs where nodes move in random manner. Due to high mobility of nodes, reliable data streaming in vehicular networks is a complex and challenging task. Moreover, transmission of data is difficult because of varying requireme...
