Information broadcasting in wireless network is a necessary building block for cooperative operations. However, the broadcasting causes increases the routing overhead. This paper brings together an array of tools of our adaptive protocol for information broadcasting in MANETs. The proposed protocol in this paper named WAODV (WAIT-AODV). This new adaptive routing discovery protocol for MANETs, lets in nodes to pick out a fantastic motion: both to retransmit receiving request route request (RREQ) messages, to discard, or to wait earlier than making any decision, which dynamically confgures the routing discovery feature to decide a gorgeous motion through the usage of neighbors’ knowledge. Simulations have been conducted to show the effectiveness of the using of techniques adaptive protocol for information broadcasting RREQ packet when integrated into ad hoc on-demand distance vector (AODV) routing protocols for MANET (which is based on simple flooding).

This study discusses the effects of a rise in groundwater level on a platform for building construction for residential use in a training school, located west of Algiers (Algeria). To ensure the protection of the residential area, it was necessary to design and implant an efficient drainage system. It was then important to determine the depth of the dry ground and the extent of saturated ground. Geophysical exploration using electrical resistivity methods allowed the accurate measurement of these different levels. To check the horizontal continuity of the low resistivity values distribution of the groundwater level, two electrical imaging profiles were done. The results of the geophysical survey were used to determine the characteristics of the necessary drainage system, its implementation on site, its optimum orientation (perpendicular to groundwater flow) and its required depth. Also, in the residential area affected by the problem of rising groundwater level, appropriate observation sites were installed allowing the carrying out of hydrogeological measurements. These additional works have been performed to understand the characteristics of the groundwater, especially its flow and its groundwater level, to be able to determine the optimal diameter of the drain.

Broadcasting is a fundamental operation in a mobile ad hoc network (MANETs) protocols. The flooding is the simplest mechanism used for message broadcasting in MANETs in which a message is rebroadcasted, by each node, exactly once. Despite its simplicity, it can cause high redundancy retransmission that could generate messages contention and collision. However, the issue is finding a way to minimize the number of redundantly received messages in order to save transmission energy while maintaining good latency and high reachability. Several enhanced versions of the flooding mechanism have been proposed to alleviate this issue by inhibiting some nodes from rebroadcasting. The selection of relay nodes is a major design consideration in all enhanced versions. In this paper, a dynamic threshold-based probabilistic scheme (DTP) is introduced. In DTP, the threshold value at the nodes is dynamically adjusted using only information from neighboring nodes. Results are presented and show the efficiency of DTP in terms of reachability, saved rebroadcast, and average latency.

Information broadcasting in MANETs is an essential building block for cooperative operations, group discussions, and common announcements (e.g., filling routing tables). The flooding is the simplest broadcasting scheme used in MANETs. In this scheme, source nodes broadcast at once packets to all neighbors. Broadcasting through flooding causes increased messages redundancy, collision, and wastage of bandwidth and energy. Several approaches have been proposed to solve these issues and could be classified into two main categories: static schemes and adaptive schemes. In this paper, we introduce an adaptive scheme for information broadcasting in MANETs. This scheme allows nodes to select an appropriate action, either to rebroadcast or to discard receiving messages. The decision is based on the amount and timestamps of received messages. Simulations have been conducted and results show that the proposed scheme reduces the number of packet transmissions, has better latency and SRB, good reachability, and low energy consumption.
