- Mobility Management in Bluetooth Ad Hoc Networks
- Bluetooth is a cutting-edge technology used for implementing wireless ad hoc networks. In order to provide an overall scheme for mobility management in Bluetooth ad hoc networks, this paper deals with scatternet topology management and packet routing. Scatternet topology management starts by forming a robust scatternet, which is less susceptible...

- Building Efficient Bluetooth Scatternet Topologies From 1-Factors
- Bluetooth introduces ad hoc connectivity into the personal area. Although only the basic single-hop star-shaped topology called piconet is currently available, Bluetooth will surely evolve towards multi-hop connectivity in the near future. These multi-hop networks called scatternets offer a wide range of possible topologies. In this paper it is argued...

- On the Characterization of Bluetooth Scatternet Topologies
- Bluetooth is an emerging short range, wireless networking standard. Using Bluetooth communication interfaces, a collection of devices can interconnect to form a scatternet. A set of n nodes can be organized into a scatternet in many different ways. This is in contrast to the classical narrowband packet radio networks or...

- Finding Ethernet-Type Network Topology Is Not Easy
- This paper investigates the problem of finding a layer-2 network topology when the information available from SNMP MIB is incomplete. This paper proves that finding a network topology in this case is NP-hard. Further proves that deciding whether the given information defines a unique network topology is a co-NP-hard problem....

- Physical Topology Discovery for Large Multi-Subnet Networks
- Knowledge of the up-to-date physical (i.e., layer-2) topology of an Ethernet network is crucial to a number of critical network management tasks, including reactive and proactive resource management, event correlation, and root-cause analysis. Given the dynamic nature of the IP networks, keeping track of topology information manually is a daunting...

- A Method to Support High Data Transmission Rate in Ad-Hoc Networks Based on Bluetooth
- This paper proposes the new Ad-Hoc network topology called "DoublePico" Double Piconet for overcoming low data transmission rate in a scatternet which is constructed by bluetooth's piconets. To construct the DoublePico, the node which performs the function of the relay station, has two bluetooth devices, moreover it has to form...
