ENGLISH ABSTRACT: In this thesis, a pricing mechanism to stimulate cooperation between nodes in ad hoc networks is explored. The model incorporates incentives for users to act as transit nodes and carry the traffic between other nodes on multi-hop paths, and to be rewarded with their own ability to send traffic. The thesis investigates the consequences of this pricing model by means of simulation of a network and illustrates the way in which network resources are allocated to users according to their geographical position. Moreover, since modelling node movements is an important aspect in ad hoc network simulation, a collective mobility model, the adaptive mobility model, is used to maximise the area coverage of the nodes. AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: In hierdie tesis word ’n koste meganisme gebruik om samewerking te stimuleer tussen nodusse in ad hoc netwerke. Die model inkorporeer trekpleisters deur gebruikers te beloon om verkeer te stuur deur op te tree as transito nodusse, en verkeer tussen nodusse op multi-skakel paaie te dra. Die tesis ondersoek die ge- volge van die koste model deur die simulering van ’n netwerk, en demonstreer die manier waarop die netwerk hulpbronne geallokeer word aan gebruikers gebaseer op hulle geografiese posisie. Siende dat die modellering van nodus bewegings ’n belangrike aspek is in ad hoc netwerk simulasie, word ’n kollek- tiewe mobiliteits model sowel as ’n veranderlike mobiliteits model gebruik om die dekkings areas van die nodusse te maksimeer. 2010-11-19T08:42:57Z 2010-12-15T10:16:06Z 2010-11-19T08:42:57Z 2010-12-15T10:16:06Z 2010-12 Thesis http://hdl.handle.net/10019.1/5155 en University of Stellenbosch 74 p. : ill. application/pdf Stellenbosch : University of Stellenbosch
