This book presents several novel approaches for autonomous mobile ad hoc network (MANET) nodes to distribute themselves uniformly over a dynamically changing environment without a centralized controller or a priori information about the deployment terrain or the state of other mobile agents. Introduced methods combine concepts from traditional game theory (GT), evolutionary GT, and bio-inspired algorithms to effectively and efficiently guide autonomous MANET nodes in finding the best positions. We show that myopic actions of each individual node lead the entire network towards a stable and uniform distribution. We present formal analysis of our methods, and prove their important properties including convergence, area coverage, and uniformity characteristics.

Janusz Kusyk received BS and MA degrees from Brooklyn College, NY and was awarded PhD degree in Computer Science at the Graduate Center, CUNY in 2012. His interests include applications of game theory and biologically inspired algorithms for communication networks especially with applications to the MANETs and distributed robotics tasks.
