	abstract = {In this paper, we{\textquoteright}ll try to discuss the cooperation of nodes representing one of the important factors in improving the quality of service (QoS) and security in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). The routing protocols for MANETs are designed based on the assumption that all participating nodes are fully cooperative. In such networks, the Selfish behaviour is among the big challenges and can lead to the degradation of the network performance. We{\textquoteright}ll introduce this behaviour and. We{\textquoteright}ll propose a new profile to assess the impact on the performance of MANETs: energy, end-to-end delay, routing packets and the packets rate. The Results of simulations using OLSR and AODV protocols have shown that energy-based selfishness is a big problem and could affect the performance in MANETS depending on the mobility of nodes, size and density of the network. We{\textquoteright}ll try to prove that the selfish behaviour can be used to impact quality of service (QoS) and security in MANETS. Therefore, we need a comprehensive mechanism to cope with this behaviour to isolate selfishness nodes and we have planned to publish it in the future work as a new strategy based on game theory to encourage nodes to cooperate.},

	abstract = {This paper describes a routing system for a communication network constituted by several ad hoc mobile nodes. This system optimizes energy consumption. It divides the network into clusters. Thereafter it detects the best way in terms of energy to be taken by a stream of data. This consists to calculate the energy required for each available path and select the optimal gateways. Each cluster is identified by a cluster-head which is elected according to its position and its residual energy by using a clustering algorithm. The main objective of this paper is to optimize the number of live nodes by assigning to each network task the appropriate nodes.},

	abstract = {Due to the dynamic nature of mobile ad hoc network (MANET), the quality of service (QoS) requires several improvements. The present paper comes within the framework of research to optimize QoS in MANET. In this paper, we propose a novel version of OLSR based on the clustering approach which is inspired from Lin and Chu heuristic and adapted to be implemented in OLSR. We studied its stability and we compared its performances to those of standard OLSR. The metrics we used in evaluating network performances were average end-to-end delay, control routing overhead, and packet delivery ratio. Experimental results show that our alternative significantly reduces the traffic reserved to monitoring the network, which positively influences other performances such as throughput, delay, and loss.

	abstract = {In healthcare the importance of obtaining the right information, at the right time, irrespective of time and location dependency is very critical. Healthcare personnel need to access real-time medical data such as patient clinical histories, laboratory results, treatments, chronic diseases, medication, and insurance information. Therefore, healthcare is the most apt domain for the application of ubiquitous technologies. Ubiquitous health care aims at creating an environment where healthcare is available to everyone, everywhere through the use of technologies that would not only be pervasive but also be assimilated flawlessly in the daily lives. With large-scale wireless networks and mobile computing solutions, such as cellular 3G, Wi-Fi mesh, WiMAX, Bluetooth, RFID, and Wireless Sensor Networks, health care personnel can tap into vital information anywhere and at any time within the health care networks. Ubiquitous healthcare, although promising, there are myriad challenges associated with realizing its vision. This paper highlights some snapshots of current uses and future trends of various wireless communications in the healthcare domains, addresses their applications for e-health, states the challenges faced in a ubiquitous healthcare environment equipped with different wireless technologies, and how the resulting issues might be addressed by developing a framework that provides a flexible and convenient medical monitoring, consultation, and healthcare.},
