Wireless ad hoc networks, mobile or static, have special resource requirements and different topology features, which make them different from classic computer networks in resource management, routing, media access control, and QoS provisioning. The book presents papers written by distinguished researchers in the field and focuses on the theoretical and experimental study of the following advanced research topics: security and trust, broadcasting and multicasting; power control and energy efficiency, and QoS provisioning. This book is a great reference tool for graduate students, researchers, and mathematicians interested in studying mobile ad hoc and sensor networks. Presents the most recentresearch on the rapidly growing field of research on mobile ad hoc and sensornetworks Presents authored papers, written by distinguished researchers in the field Focuses on subtopics that have emerged from mobile ad hoc and sensor network research, ie., QoS routing, broadcast and multicast Elaborates on several multicasting approaches in mobile wireless ad hoc networks INDICE: From the contents Preface.- Backbone Quality-of-Service Routing Protocol for Heterogeneous Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (X.
