This paper advances a novel approach that facilitates the location of services and/or digital assets advertised by directories in a Mobile Ad hoc Network. The proposed Service Directory Placement Protocol (SDPP) improves scalability and reduces packet traffic overhead by advancing a multi-directory extension of an earlier approach that relied on the migration of a single directory through the network. This investigation demonstrates that modelling the directory replication problem as a Semi-Markov Decision Problem solved by means of a Reinforcement Learning technique known as Q-learning improves the performance of SDPP

We love our mobile devices, be they phones or tablets. We surf the web, check our email and even work on them once in a while. As great as these devices are, they are not yet full computer replacements

A few months ago, we posted a tutorial titled Install Android Mobile OS on PC. With that tutorial, you can run Android on your computer via the Android SDK (software development kit). However, SDK installs are more targeted for developers, or people that are developing and creating their own Android applications.

Ubiquitous smart environments equipped with low-cost and easily-deployable wireless sensor networks (WSNs) and ever-increasing widespread Mobile Ad hoc NETworks (MANETs) are opening brand new opportunities in environmental monitoring. This paper proposes an original solution for WSN/MANET integration based on the primary design guideline of opportunistically exploiting MANET overlays impromptu formed over the WSN to improve and boost the data collection task of a typical WSN

Energy efficiency is a key characteristic of modern wireless sensors.
