    Abstract

    Wide implementation of IEEE 802.11 based networks could lead to deployment of
    localized wireless data communication environments with a limited number of
    mobile hosts, called ad hoc networks. Implementation of a proper routing
    methodology in ad hoc networks makes it efficient in terms of performance. A
    wide spectrum of routing protocols has been contributed by several researchers.
    Real time applications have been most popular among the applications, run by ad
    hoc networks.

  2. Covariant and Contravariant Vectors.

    Abstract

    Vector is a physical quantity and it does not depend on any co-ordinate
    system. It need to be expanded in some basis for practical calculation and its
    components do depend on the chosen basis. The expansion in orthonormal basis is
    mathematically simple. But in many physical situations we have to choose an
    non-orthogonal basis (or oblique co-ordinate system). But the expansion of a
    vector in non-orthogonal basis is not convenient to work with. With the notion
    of contravariant and covariant components of a vector, we make non-orthogonal
    basis to behave like orthonormal basis.
