Abstract
The ability to discover services offered in Mobile Ad-Hoc
Networks (MANETs) is the major prerequisite for effectively
utilizing these services. Caching service advertisements is an
essential component in service discovery protocols for MANETs.
To fully utilize the advantage of the cached service
advertisements, the cached service description can be advertise
with the local service description in a vicinity, which however wi
increase packet size. To reduce packet size, a better solution is
to representing the cached service advertisements with a meta
service description. In this paper, we introduce a fine-grained
group-based meta service description scheme and propose an
efficient service discovery protocol: Meta Service Description
Assisted Service Discovery Protocol (MSDASDP) for MANETs,
where the number of forwarding nodes of request packets is
minimized with the help of the fine-grained meta service
description. Simulation results both show that MSDASDP is an
effective, efficient, and prompt service discovery protocol for
MANETs.
