Two new fields have recently appeared: mobile ad hoc networks and sensor networks. The emergence of these very promising systems is mainly due to great technological progress in the field of wireless communication protocols; these will make it possible to offer a broad range of new applications in both civilian and militarian domains. The inherent characteristics of these systems imply new challenges. This book deals with several relevant fields related to the evolution of these spontaneous and self-organized networks. The authors tackle critical problems such as the design of unicast/multicast routing protocols, the support of the quality of service, the security mechanisms for routing and data transmission, the service discovery, the techniques of clustering/self-organization, the mobility of code and the fault-tolerance techniques. The discussion adopts an analysis-oriented approach which aims to cover the current cutting-edge aspects of these fields and to highlight some potential future development, making it essential reading for anyone wishing to gain a better understanding of these exciting new areas.

Review:
"This book will provide a very useful reference on the architectural aspects of ad–hoc sensor networks to both students and practioners working in the area." ( Computing Reviews, November 19, 2008)

"What makes this book worth reading from cover to cover is the successful juxtaposition of state–of–the–art descriptions and concrete research projects related to wireless ad hoc and sensor networks. While many aspects of the study of wireless ad hoc sensor networks are still in flux, the book succeeds in presenting ′a global, realistic, and critical vision of the evolution of spontaneous and autonomous network.′ Thus, the book is long on solid scientific research and short on speculation." (Computing Reviews, October 23, 2008)
