Abstract :
We present a method that offers a simple way of estimating the availability of routes, trees or other subnetworks with dependent links. Such dependencies typically exist in ad hoc networks, where the evaluation of global availability is important for ensuring end-to-end quality of service. The method is presented in a general form, so that it can also be applied to many other scenarios.
