The mobile ad hoc networks are self-organizing and does not require fixed infrastructure. In such networks, portable computing devices exchange information with each other requiring service discovery protocol. The proposed model automatically discovers quality-based services by organizing two integrated directory-based structure: backbone-based and cluster-based. This structure optimizes the flooding of control packets and hierarchies the network, each of which is managed logically by its clusterhead nodes. This model also calculates cluster weights dynamically based on requestor's feedback and node's behavior which will be helpful for new nodes joining the clusters. This model reduces response time, control message overhead, and achieves nominal battery power consumption.

Abstract-Service discovery is an essential step in deploying many wireless network applications. The design of service discovery protocols is particularly challenging for mobile wireless networks because of their dynamic and unstructured nature. Most of the previously proposed protocols are based on the assumption that there exists an end-to-end connection from the query source node to the destination node, the assumption that rarely holds for mobile wireless networks. In this paper, we propose a novel service discovery protocol for delay tolerant networks in which all node connections are intermittent. To describe services through a fixed size string, we use Bloom filter that leads to efficient service announcement and search. The service queries are dispatched into the network and forwarded by random walk search using node meeting history as hints. Our preliminary simulation results show that the proposed protocol achieves good performance as measured by the service discovery success rate, delay and overhead.Index Terms-service discovery, Bloom filter, random walk search, delay tolerant networks I. INTRODUCTION HE growth of wireless devices ranging from PDA to mp3 player makes many new applications available on top of the mobile wireless networks formed by these devices. Due to limited capabilities of a single device, these applications often need to utilize services provided by other devices. Hence, the performance of a service discovery scheme can greatly affect the performance of the entire application. However, lack of infrastructure and unpredictability of mobility patterns make service discovery very difficult in such mobile wireless networks.Most of the previous service discovery approaches for mobile wireless networks can be classified into two categories: directory-based and directory-less. For the former, service providers register and update their services in specific service directories and service requestors send service queries to these directories to get the services available in the network. In [1], a

“…The former utilizes a directory for maintain list of available resources in the network. For instance, Mallah and Quintero (2009) proposed a directory based approach in which a set of backbone nodes are selected for maintaining directories and entertaining discovery requests. Directory-less approach works in decentralized fashion by contacting the hosting nodes for the desired resources.…”

Ad hoc network enables network creation on the fly without support of any predefined infrastructure. The spontaneous erection of networks in anytime and anywhere fashion enables development of various novel applications based on ad hoc networks. However, at the same ad hoc network presents several new challenges. Different research proposals have came forward to resolve these challenges. This chapter provides a survey of current issues, solutions and research trends in wireless ad hoc network. Even though various surveys are already available on the topic, rapid developments in recent years call for an updated account on this topic. The chapter has been organized as follows. In the first part of the chapter, various ad hoc network's issues arising at different layers of TCP/IP protocol stack are presented. An overview of research proposals to address each of these issues is also provided. The second part of the chapter investigates various emerging models of ad hoc networks, discusses their distinctive properties and highlights various research issues arising due to these properties. We specifically provide discussion on ad hoc grids, ad hoc clouds, wireless mesh networks and cognitive radio ad hoc networks. The chapter ends with presenting summary of the current research on ad hoc network, ignored research areas and directions for further research.Keywords: Ad hoc network, research issues, ad hoc grid, ad hoc cloud, wireless mesh network, cognitive radio ad hoc network INTRODUCTIONDuring last few years, extensive developments have been observed in the domain of wireless network. Different communication technologies i.e. general packet radio service (GPRS), enhanced data rates for GSM evolution (EDGE) and worldwide interoperability for microwave access (WIMAX) etc. have evolved and newer form of computing devices i.e. personal digital assistant (PDA), tablets and smart phones are appearing in the market. The wireless computing has progressed from 1G to 4G communication networks. During this progression, various modes of wireless networking have emerged. The simplest form of wireless networking is communication among two or more fixed hosts in open air. The conventional television system operates on this mode. Another approach is wireless networking with access point. There are different wireless hosts that are allowed to move while the basic infrastructure is supported by set of fixed nodes called base stations or access points. However, this approach doesn't provide the flexibility to be used in emergency situations requiring quick deployment or networking in adversarial surroundings. The evolution of technologies has lead to development a new mode of wireless networking where the nodes arrange themselves on the fly in the form of a network without any infrastructure support. Such networks are called ad hoc networks.
