Mobile ad hoc network researchers face the challenge of achieving full functionality with good performance while linking the new technology to the rest of the Internet. A strict layered design is not flexible enough to cope with the dynamics of manet environments, however, and will prevent performance optimizations. The MobileMan cross-layer architecture offers an alternative to the pure layered approach that promotes stricter local interaction among protocols in a manet node.read more

A cross-layer approach to service discovery and selection in MANETs
TL;DR: It is argued that effective service selection in MANETs requires a cross-layer approach that integrates service discovery and selection functionality with network ad hoc routing mechanisms and allows clients to switch to better servers as network topology changes.

802.11 power-saving mode for mobile computing in Wi-Fi hotspots: limitations, enhancements and open issues
TL;DR: This paper proposes a very simple Cross-Layer Energy Manager (XEM) that dynamically tunes its energy-saving strategy depending on the application behavior and key network parameters and reduces the energy consumption of an additional 20–96% with respect to the standard PSM.

Does the IEEE 802.11 MAC protocol work well in multihop wireless ad hoc networks
Shugong Xu,Tarek Saadawi +1 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that the current version of this wireless LAN protocol does not function well in multihop ad hoc networks, and it is doubt whether the WaveLAN-based system is workable as a mobile ad hoc testbed.

A cautionary perspective on cross-layer design
Vikas Kawadia,P. R. Kumar +1 more
TL;DR: It is argued that it behooves to exercise caution while engaging in cross-layer design, because unbridled cross- layer design can lead to spaghetti design, which can stifle further innovation and be difficult to upkeep.
