ACTIVE SOURCE ROUTING PROTOCOL FOR MOBILE AD HOC

33 PAGES (4372 WORDS) Computer Science Project

ABSTRACT
Active networking is the emerging technology that will provide new network environment where lots of potential applications can be enhanced and developed. Current IP network is somehow good at simple packet forwarding, but it desperately needs some flexibility to support QoS and has to meets some restraint in certain environment. Active packets allow many functionalities with great flexibility, however way too slow for data forwarding. To realize best performance in wireless environment, it is possible to hybrid both of approach and to take advantage of it. We do have a variety choice of wireless environment depends on application such as regular cellular network, ad hoc network and sensor network. It is certain that each case should have different approach and any single protocol cannot match heterogeneous requirement for each network at this point, even though universal protocol for ubiquitous networking may finally evolve based on IP. However we also need to take into consideration of integration of such different network as a first step toward ubiquitous networking.
