Abstract :
A major challenge in the design of wireless ad hoc networks is the need for distributed routing algorithms that consume a minimal amount of network resources. This is particularly important in dynamic networks, where the topology can change over time, and therefore routing tables must be updated frequently. Such updates incur control traffic, which consumes bandwidth and power.
