Abstract
This article describes how resources are managed in MANETs (mobile ad hoc networks) so that quality of service (QoS) can be achieved to enable service differentiation. The article introduces in detail a QoS routing protocol called admission control enabled on-demand routing (ACOR) protocol. The article also presents the Global framework for functional architecture analysis in telecommunications (GAT) that is used to model ACOR and show its capability to provide different class of service for different mobile customers. For QoS routing protocols, this fashion of modeling is novel and investigates in details the relation between the customer and its provider and the complexity of the domain of MANETs.

Mobile Ad Hoc Networks: Protocol Design and Implementation
(Mobile Ad hoc NETwork): an independent system of mobile devices connected by ad hoc wireless links. All nodes in the system cooperate in order to correctly route packets in multihop forwarding mode. Due to the unpredictable mobility of nodes, the network topology may change constantly. Ad hoc networks are built and used as appropriate in extremely dynamic environments, not necessarily with the help of an already existing infrastructure, such as after natural disasters, military conflicts or during emergencies.

Seamless Multi-Hop Handover in IPv6-Based Hybrid Wireless Networks
A type of mobile wireless network. In contrast to an infrastructure wireless network, a MANET is an infrastructure-less network. In a MANET, there is no fixed router. Instead, each MN can serve as a router that discovers and maintains routes to other nodes.
