on Ad Hoc Networks (AdHocNets) focuses
on ad hoc networking technologies and their applications.
An ad hoc network is a wireless system, in which mobile or
static nodes are connected using wireless links and cooperate to self-organize
into a network without the requirement for any infrastructure such as access
points or base stations. In recent years, ad hoc networks have
been attracting increased attention from the research and engineering
communities.</span><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif"></span></p>

of ad hoc networking as well as the highly dynamic topology of
an ad hoc network due to node mobility has introduced many
formidable challenges such as scalability, quality of service, reliability and
security, and energy-constrained operations for the network. Ad hoc networking
covers a variety of network paradigms including
mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs), wireless sensor networks
(WSNs), vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs), airborne networks,
underwater networks, underground networks, personal area networks, and home
networks, etc. It promises a wide range of applications in civilian,
