  text: 'Wireless connectivity is state of the art for local area networks. Currently,
    most W-LAN networks rely on a centralized design with access points routing all
    inner and outbound traffic. These access points are intrinsic communication bottlenecks.
    Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANET) overcome this problem, because every participant
    works as well as a simple node and as a router. Current MANETs are restricted
    in scalability, because they rely on flooding mechanisms or complete routing tables.
    Other approaches, providing better scalability use clustering, yet network performance
    deteriorates in case of high node mobility. We describe the design of a PAMANET,
    the Paderborn Mobile Ad Hoc Network, a MANET overcoming these problems providing
    scalability and reliability in a mobile scenario. When implemented, PAMANET works
    with standard W-LAN IEEE 802.11 radio devices, provides IPv6 communication interfaces
    and works on personal computers under a standard Linux distribution. First, we
    present current routing protocols and classify them with respect to scalability
    and stability in dynamically evolving MANETs. Then, we discuss related research
    in the area of distributed hash tables and consistent hashing, used for relieving
    hot spots in the Web, storage area networks and peerto-peer networks, which inspires
    the design of PAMANET. PAMANET consists of three main components: First, the embedding
    of the routing layer into IEEE 802.11 and IPv6 by using techniques used at the
    ad hoc support library (aslib) by Gupta et al. Second, the routing layer which
    combines a landmark routing, hierarchical clustering, consistent hashing for providing
    location dependent addresses and lookup-service for the location of nodes. Third,
    a peerto-peer data storage system based on egoistic distributed caches enabling
    hop and traffic efficient data access on replicated data partitions. <br>The routing
    layer incorporates a variety of new approaches. Link distances reflect the failure
    probability of links, which is estimated by the reciprocal age of the link. Then,
    we combine a landmarking system on this metric with the hierarchical layer graph
    yielding small landmark addresses and small routing tables. To balance the load
    of the distributed lookup-service for landmark addresses, a hierarchical weighted
    consistent hashing scheme is used. This ensures that each node receives an equal
    part of all landmark addresses. Using these mechanisms (regularly and on demand)
    PAMANET adjusts IPv6 routing tables such that short stable routes are preferred.
    For the distribution of control data like landmark information PAMANET uses a
    message box system interface to provide fast one-hop communication. On top of
    this system, PAMANET provides a peer-to-peer data storage and lookup system that
    realizes time, traffic, and load efficient access using egoistic caches and data
    segmentation strategies.'
