User Level Implementation Of a Service Discovery Protocol For Ad Hoc Networks

   

Abstract

Routing protocols are mostly designed for tethered networks. Ad hoc networks are wireless data communication networks without pre-configured infrastructure. Particular examples of ad hoc networks are mobile ad hoc networks and sensor networks. The study of ad hoc networks has recently gained momentum. SeMA is one of those which is an architectural approach to service access for an environment in which no established infrastructure at any level exists.

In this project, implementation of SeMA routing is aimed. The protocol daemon is decided to be developed, so that it would run in the user space of Linux. User level implementation of routing protocols is a new approach which has been started to be used by most of the routing implementers. It provides simplicity in coding and protects kernel against the unconscious damages during the embedding of the protocols to be implemented. In this manner, development of the SeMA Daemon is satisfied, which would be the first non-IP routing ever implemented in user-level.
