 | The handoff problem in ad hoc networks needs to be treated through an integrated multi-layer approach, due to its major differences with respect to the counterpart in infrastructure-based networks. In this paper, an integrated framework through the cross layer approach is presented to deal with the handoff problem in heterogeneous wireless networks with multiple interfaces. Further, extensive study has been conducted to evaluate our proposed handoff solution through simulation, emulation ... |

 | This paper explores the robust routing of messages among individuals. Traditional routing assumes individuals provide messages to a device connected to a communications network that assumes all responsibility for message delivery. Although each individual may have links to multiple communication devices (office computer, PDA, cell phone), messages are delivered only if there is an end-to-end communication path between communication devices available to each individual. To improve robustness of communication, especially ... |

 | Future military programs are mandated to use IPv6; however, little emphasis has been placed on exploiting the potential in IPv6 to more efficiently support mobile networks. Current approaches mimic IPv4 solutions, which may prevent the full benefits of IPv6 from being realized in dynamic networks. These IPv4-copycat solutions may, for example, degrade routing performance and scalability. In this paper we analyze the alternatives available within IPv6 to improve the interconnection ... |

 | The theoretical performance advantages of dividing a network into independent routing domains is well known; however, the actual benefits are hard to quantify and are often not sufficient to outweigh the added complexity. Justification of domains is especially hard in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETS) because reconfiguration overhead and the use of single interface routers increase. Nevertheless, the authors believe that with the right domain configuration and inter-domain routing protocol, ... |
