We study expansion and information diffusion in dynamic networks, that is in networks in which nodes and edges are continuously created and destroyed. We consider information diffusion by {\em flooding}, the process by which, once a node is…
A Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) is a self-configuring infrastructure less network of mobile devices connected by wireless links. In this network technology, simulative analysis is a significant method to understand the performance of…
Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) are self-configuring wireless networks that lack permanent infrastructure and are formed among mobile nodes on demand. Rapid node mobility results in dramatic channel variation, or fading, that degrades MANET…

In this paper, we consider the consensus problem of dynamical multiple agents that communicate via a directed moving neighborhood random network. Each agent performs random walk on a weighted directed network. Agents interact with each…
Mobile networks receive increasing research interest recently due to their increasingly wide applications in various areas; mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) and Vehicular ad hoc networks (VANET) are two prominent examples. Mobility introduces…
Nodes movements play a significant role in disseminating messages in the sparse mobile ad-hoc network. In the network scenarios, where traditional end-to-end paths do not exist, mobility creates opportunities for nodes to connect and…
Flooding is among the simplest and most fundamental of all distributed network algorithms. A node begins the process by sending a message to all its neighbours and the neighbours, in the next round forward the message to all the neighbours…
In this work, we examine a network of agents operating asynchronously, aiming to discover an ideal global model that suits individual local datasets. Our assumption is that each agent independently chooses when to participate throughout the…
Given a connected region in two-dimensional space where events of a certain kind occur according to a certain time-varying density, we consider the problem of setting up a network of autonomous mobile agents to detect the occurrence of…
Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks (VANET) is a derived subclass of Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANET) with vehicles as mobile nodes. VANET facilitate vehicles to share safety and non-safety information through messages. Safety information includes road…
