Abstract
Wireless communication systems are becoming the new enabling technology for accessing, sharing and processing data. It is easily visionable as in a close future users will access Internet through wireless PDA, while roaming from a place to another. Mobile ad-hoc networks (MANET) are peer to peer wireless networks that do not trust on the presence of a wired interconnections infrastructure. A part more traditional applications in the military field as well as in disaster recovery and emerge situations, MANET may represent an interesting possibility for personal communications and interaction among mobile users. In this paper we identify some possible fields of application of such wireless systems, identifying advantages and drawbacks. We also present a prototype application where MANET are used in order to provide a distributed image processing service.Pubblicazioni consigliate
