Abstract :
The efficient assessment of connection stability in pervasive wireless environments is a crucial yet insufficiently explored problem. Existing stability assessment approaches for mobile networks focus rather on link stability and are based on unrealistic assumptions. In this paper, we propose an extension for the prevalent DSR routing protocol that allows for simple and efficient yet fairly accurate connection stability assessment based solely on routing information
