title = "OSPF database exchange and reliable synchronization in mobile ad hoc networks",
abstract = "In this paper, we expose the need for an alternate mechanism replacing usual database exchange and reliable synchronization in OSPF for mobile ad hoc environments. A mechanism for link-state database exchanges in wireless adhoc networks is proposed, aiming at 'completing the adaptation of OSPF for ad hoc networks started in [1]. This adapted mechanism is specified with the following applications in mind: (i) Reliable diffusion of link-state information replacing OSPF acknowledgements with a mechanism suitable for mobile wireless networks; (ii) Reduced overhead for performing OSPF style database exchanges in a mobile wireless network; (iii) Reduced initialization time when new nodes are emerging in the network; (iv) Reduced overhead and reduced convergence time when several wireless OSPF ad hoc network clouds merge.",
