Several routing protocols have been proposed in recent years for possible deployment of Mobile Ad hoc NETworks (MANETs) in military, government and commercial applications. In this paper, the authors ...

A complex routing protocol that shares information with other routers in order to determine the best path. IS-IS was the first comprehensive link state protocol, and OSPF and NLSP evolved from it.

The energy consumption is a great challenge in the field on Wireless Sensor Network (WSN). It affects the performance of the whole network. There are two basic functions of nodes in the WSN. First is ...

Routing protocols were created for routers. These protocols have been designed to allow the exchange of routing tables, or known networks, between routers. There are a lot of different routing ...
