| Abstract: | Abstract Hybrid mobile wireless architectures that combine the advantages of ad hoc (mobile nodes) and cellular models provide “communications-on-the-move” services with enhanced flexibility and stability. In this article, we investigate the resiliency of such architectures by considering strategies for optimal deployment (number and location) of backup routers that would ensure reliable performance in such interdependent mobile systems. |
