A Delay Constrained Two-Hop Relay Algorithm for Transparent Computing in MANETs

Transparent computing devices nowadays may be deployed in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs), whose information theory is still lacking. As the first step towards learning MANETs for this paradigm, we propose 2HR-fτ, a simple algorithm that extends the traditional two-hop relay algorithms with deliver delay constraints. Extensive simulations are conducted to provide characteristics such as network throughput, deliver ratio and average deliver delay.
