Mobile ad-hoc network (MANET) is a dynamically reconfigurable wireless network without any centralized administration or infrastructure. Multicasting is the transmission of datagram's to a group of nodes identified by a single destination address. Multicasting can efficiently support a variety of applications and services. Most of existing multicast routing protocols in MANETs consider only one source in a multicast group and become inefficient when the protocol is extended to multi-source multicasting. In this paper, we propose a unicast forwarded cluster-based multicast routing protocol to provide efficient multicasting in the multi-source environment also. The proposed routing method will not use broadcast method to send control packets or data packets. The source or receiver join control messages are transmitted through the cluster heads throughout the network. Thus, control overhead bytes are reduced. Simulation results shows that the proposed protocol maintains the delivery ratio with minimum normalized routing load and outperforms the exiting protocols.

Key exchange in MANETs has been a challenging issue in current situations, because of rapid increasing of mobile devices. In such environment secure information sharing is very essential for users. This work has been trying to evaluate the performance of key exchange scheme using integrity regions in two mobility models. The simulation results show the performance of key exchange scheme using Integrity region. This paper is thus trying to find the better real time scenario for key exchange using paramount integrity region radius.

This paper describes the WiFi Multi-Modal Management component of the Serval Mesh Software. The Serval Mesh Software is a mobile telephony platform that can operate independent of fixed infrastructure, by using the WiFi capability of the device to automatically form a wireless mesh network that supports the carriage of voice calls, short messages and other modes of communication. Context and use cases for the Serval Mesh Software are included to provide the reader with some context. After describing the lack of inherent ad-hoc WiFi support on Android mobile telephones and the problems that result, this paper describes the WiFi Multi-Modal Management component incorporated into the Serval Mesh Software, that is used to maximize the mesh connectivity options available on any given model of telephone handset. The approach taken is to modularize the detection and control of the WiFi hardware on each model of handset so that support for new handsets can be added without recompiling the software or managing a single byzantine monolithic control script that contains the commands for all supported handset models. This modular approach is then leveraged to facilitate automated acquisition of WiFi ad-hoc mode on hitherto unsupported models of Android telephone handsets, removing the need for labor-intensive manual crafting of these scripts, and the bottleneck and infrastructure-dependence that this previously entailed. The paper concludes with preliminary results indicating the success of the improvements to the Serval Mesh Software project described in this paper, including anecdotal reports from third-party users of the software.

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) is a multiple access technique that can accommodate many users with widely varying applications, data rates and Quality of Service requirements, with increased spectral efficiency. Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR) reduction for OFDMA is motivated by a desire to increase the mean transmit power and to improve the power amplifier efficiency. This paper presents use of chaotic sequences generated using tent map for multiple data rate spreading and PAPR reduction in OFDMA system. Increase in PAPR due to variable spreading could be reduced by spreading using chaotic sequences. Chaotic sequences gave constant PAPR values for different combinations of data rates. It was also noted that the sequences could be chosen irrespective of the data rates used. Bit error rate was found to be comparable with that for Orthogonal Variable Spreading Factor codes.

Voice over WLAN (VoWLAN) has been emerging as an infrastructure to provide low-cost wireless voice services. Reaping the profits of voice over WLAN, we can enhance the underlying technologies behind emergency call to improve the QoS parameters. Nowadays, the researchers have been focusing to bring in new technologies like VoIP for variety of applications. Healthcare is one of the major area where emergency calls are extensively required. Hospitals are one of the first users of VoWLAN solutions, mainly because of the significant need for effective communication among high-valued medical staff. In case of a medical emergency, VoWLAN can mean the difference between life and death. The emphasize of the paper is to analyze the resource and cost effective utilization of VoWLAN, particularly for reduced delay based emergency call routing.

It is well recognized that context plays a significant role in all human endeavors. All decisions are based on information which has to be interpreted in context. By making the information systems context-aware we can have systems that significantly improve the human capabilities to handle situations. Further, most of the time, we react to events that take place. We organize activities, and gather information and resources, in response and handle the event in the context in which it takes place. The challenge comes up when we design systems that support our abilities to handle events, anticipated as well as unanticipated. In this tutorial be discuss the current state of the art for Context-aware Systems, Event-driven Systems and present some ideas towards the design and implementation of Context-aware, Event-driven Systems. Some examples of the systems being developed and deployed at the University of Maryland will also be presented.

Efficient monitoring of physiological signals of injured people in a disaster affected area is always a challenging and tedious task. In this paper we propose an emergency medical service system which can be used in disaster hit areas. Our proposed system aims at reducing this problem and help doctors to serve the injured and save lives. The system designed is easily portable. This system can also be efficaciously link the disaster affected community with the doctor who is willing to assist from anywhere in the world. The proposed portable system can measure physiological signals of people without the requirement of elaborate patient monitoring system, which also consumes lot of power. The expedite response underpins our system and by its exclusive usage in the most challenging environments makes it a perfect solution for patient monitoring in disaster affected areas. The experimental results show the performance of our system is comparatively similar to the manually measured parameters.

Karshik is a small scale, service administering project. The objective of this project is to make vital statistics about crops pertaining to a certain topology, geographic location and climatic conditions available to farmers in India, so as to equip them with information for producing the better yields; The long term aim of this project is to ultimately make a region self sufficient in the crops that can be suitably grown. This eradicates the need to import or strain resources that are sparse or extensively exploited in the pursuit of growing crops that are are not suited to a certain topology. In this paper the KARSHIK system is described. After a section dedicated to the explanation of the particular need of implementation, the paper describes the system's realization in Kerala-India for the analysis of crops suiting a certain terrain. The paper concludes with an outlook on future applications of the presented system.

India has become a global power house in software and software services sector. However, it lags behind in electronics systems design and manufacturing (ESDM) capabilities. However, it is important for India to develop this sector both because of the tremendous economic opportunities it offers as well as its huge strategic relevance from security perspective. Government of India envisions making India a leading destination for ESDM sector in the world. This paper discusses some of the policy initiatives which can help India achieve this vision.
