Abstract:Abstract. In this chapter, we study the applicability and effectiveness of an evolutionary computation approach to a topology control problem in the domain of mobile ad hoc networks (manets). We present formal and practical aspects of convergence properties of our force-based genetic algorithm, called fga, which is run by each mobile node to achieve a uniform spread. Our fga is suitable for manet environments since mobile nodes, while running the fga, only use local neighborhood information. An inhomogeneous M… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
