Cocowa: Collaborative Contact Based Watchdog For Redundancy Management

CoCoWa is a new scheme for detecting selfish nodes in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) where nodes can freely move and change connections. It combines local watchdog monitoring of neighboring node behavior with sharing watchdog information between nodes when they come into contact. By overhearing packet transmissions and receptions of neighbors, local watchdogs can detect anomalies like the ratio of received to retransmitted packets and determine if a node is acting selfishly. This detection information is then spread to other nodes through contact exchanges to build a collaborative view of node behavior across the network.

CoCoWa: Collaborative Contact Based Watchdog for

Redundancy Management
Abstract
Mobile Adhoc Network is a continuously self-configuring, infrastructure-less network
of

mobile devices connected without wires. Each device in a MANET is free to move

independently in any direction, and will therefore change its links to other devices frequently.
In this, paper introduce the new scheme Collaborative Contact based Watchdog ( CoCoWa)
as a new scheme for detecting selfish nodes. A common technique to detect this selsh
behaviour is network monitoring using local watchdogs. A nodes watchdog consists on
overhearing the packets transmitted and received by its neighbours in order to detect
anomalies, such as the ratio between packets received to packets being retransmitted. By
using this technique, the local watchdog can generate a positive (or negative) detection in
case the node is acting selshly (or not). In this work, propose an work based on the
combination of a local watchdog and the diffusion of information when contacts between
pairs of nodes occurs.
