    A distributed mutual exclusion algorithm over multi-routing protocol for mobile ad hoc networks
    (Taylor et Francis, 2008-04-15) Derhab, Abdelouahid; Badache, Nadjib
    In this paper, we propose a new architecture to solve the problem of mutual exclusion in mobile ad hoc networks (MANET). The architecture is composed of two layers: (i) a middleware layer that contains a token-based distributed mutual exclusion algorithm (DMEA) and (ii) a network layer that includes two routing forwarding strategies: one to route request messages and the other to route the token message. We also propose a request ordering policy that ensures the usual mutual exclusion properties and reduces the number of hops traversed per critical section (CS) access. The paper also addresses the problem of network partitioning and unreachable nodes. The proposed mutual exclusion algorithm is further enhanced to provide fault tolerance by preventing the loss of the token and generating a new token if the token loss event occurs. The performance complexity as well as the experimental results show that the proposed algorithm experiences low number of hops per CS access.

    Mobility Impact on Mobile Ad hoc Routing Protocols
    (IEEE Computer Society, 2003) Djenouri, Djamel; Derhab, Abdelouahid; Badache, Nadjib
    An ad hoc network is a set of mobile units connected by wireless technologies, making an infrastructureless temporary network. without turning to a central administration. The network topology is unpredictable, dynamic, it may change any time. These topology changes make ad hoc networks challenging to implement routing protocols. In this paper, we study mobility effects on the performance of several mobile ad hoc routing protocols.

    Ad hoc networks routing protocols and mobility
    (2006-04) Djenouri, Djamel; Derhab, Abdelouahid; Badache, Nadjib
    An ad hoc network is a temporary infrastructureless network, formed dynamically by mobile devices without turning to any existing centralized administration. To send packets to remote nodes, a node uses other intermediate nodes as relays, and ask them to forward its packets. For this purpose, a distributed routing protocol is required. Because the devices used are mobile, the network topology is unpredictable, and it may change at any time. These topology changes along with other intrinsic features related to mobile devices, such as the energy resource limitation, make ad hoc networks challenging to implement efficient routing protocols. In this paper, we drive a GloMoSim based simulation study, to investigate the mobility effects on the performance of several mobile ad hoc routing protocols.
