Ad-Hoc, Mobile, and Wireless Networks 6th International Conference, ADHOC-NOW 2007, Morelia, Mexico, September 24-26, 2007, Proceedings

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Ad-Hoc Networks and Wireless, ADHOC-NOW 2007, held in Morelia, Mexico, in September 2007.

The 21 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 50 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on routing, topology control, security and privacy, protocols, as well as quality of service and performance.
