Preface
Ad Hoc Networks are wireless, self-organizing systems formed by co-operating nodes, within communication range of each other which form temporary networks. Their topology is dynamic, decentralized, and ever-changing, and the nodes may move around arbitrarily. The last few years have witnessed a wealth of research ideas on Ad Hoc networks which are moving rapidly into implemented standards. Mobile computing, particularly wireless-enabled mobile computing, covers a large area of applications in mobile computing environments, networking, communication devices and systems. This conference exposes experimental as well as theoretical research in ad hoc, mobile and wireless networks. The range of topics covered includes management of power consumption, architectures and protocols, quality of service, and security. The aim of the conference was to provide
