Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) present a communication challenge since most of their nodes have low-performance hardware resources in structureless environment. These leave and join the network several times short intervals. Thence, there is not stable data link between all nodes. Various mechanisms, technics, protocols, algorithms must be implemented to allow effective information sharing through whole MANET. In this work, high-level architectonic design an algorithm with probabilistic...
