“…Additionally, the respective advantages and disadvantages are evaluated. Section 5 introduces important P2P application scenarios for MANETs, such as decentralized name service (e.g., MAPNaS [71] and P2PNS [2]), overlaybased multicast (e.g., XScribe [19]), and multimedia services (e.g., P2PSIP [20]). Finally, Section 6 concludes the chapter.…”

Wireless multi-hop networks such as mobile ad-hoc (MANET) or wireless mesh networks (WMN) have attracted big research efforts during the last years as they have huge potential in several areas such as military communications, fast infrastructure replacement during emergency operations, extension of hotspots or as an alternative communication system. Due to various reasons, such as characteristics of wireless links, multi-hop forwarding operation, and mobility of nodes, performance of traditional peer-to-peer applications is rather low in such networks. In this book chapter, we provide a comprehensive and in-depth survey on recent research on various approaches to provide peer-to-peer services in wireless multi-hop networks. The causes and problems for low performance of traditional approaches are discussed. Various representative alternative approaches to couple interactions between the peer-to-peer overlay and the network layer are examined and compared. Some open questions are discussed to stimulate further research in this area.

Nodes in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) act as routers by exchanging routing information to determine initial routes and to update those routes to account for node movement and failure. This ability of MANETs to self-form and self-heal makes them ideal for scenarios that require rapid deployment in areas with limited network infrastructure. However, their dynamic nature makes it challenging to implement naming and location services, as well as other services that traditionally require a fixed infrastructure. A naming service is highly desirable in networks, especially in dynamic networks like MANETs, since it allows accessing network resources by fixed names instead of volatile addresses. This paper presents multicast onomastic search (MOSS), which is a technique for implementing a distributed DNS server in a MANET using multicast addresses. Upon entering a network, a MOSS-enabled node joins a multicast group responsible for resolving the node's name. The node can then respond to DNS queries for its name. MOSS allows a set of nodes in a MANET to provide a naming service that is resilient to node movement and reconfiguration. It also guarantees that, once routes have stabilized sufficiently, it is always possible to resolve the name of a node provided only that the node itself is reachable.
