This work provides a survey of available literature of some methodologies employed by researchers to utilize the Cellular Automata (CA) for modelling purpose. The literature survey introduces the different types of CA being used for modelling and also tries to present the different fields in which CA has been applied. Programmable Cellular Automata (PCA) was successfully applied for simulation of biological and physical systems and recently to design parallel and distributed algorithms for solving task density and synchronization problems. In this work PCA is applied to develop cryptography...

Fundamental changes have been brought in data networking and telecommunications by the wireless communication revolution. Wireless networks: Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) and Vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) are characterized by the movement and self organization of the nodes. VANETs uses vehicles like cars, trucks etc as nodes. The data transfer take place using these vehicles. We will be applying an efficient and effective algorithm over large and dense VANETs of the type Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V). The VANET networks communicate using the standards for wireless communications. Thus, in...

A mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is a continuously self-configuring, infrastructure-less network of mobile devices connected without wires. Ad hoc is Latin and means "for this purpose." As mentioned in our rationale, the motivation of this work is to study wireless networks, and help improvise the existing work in the field of wireless networks. We have also implemented the concept of flooding in wired-cum-wireless networks and wireless network with mobile nodes. The Approximation algorithms in wireless networks are often associated with NP-hard problems and it is unlikely that there can ever...
