Declarative Composition Routing Protocols Adaptation in MANET Using Rough Set Theory

Mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is an autonomous collection of nodes that has the ability to dynamically and rapidly form networks without the use of any centralized network infrastructure using wireless communication technologies. Rough set theory is a mathematical tool to deal with vagueness and uncertainty. In this paper, we pursue declarative approach on protocol composition and adaptation in MANET, and use rough set theory for protocol selection. First, we present the declarative protocol composition in MANET. Second, we show how to select the protocol adaptively using rough set theory in a few rules. Third, we present the evaluation result.
