%X Address management is a critical process
in a network, because any node
wishing to make part of the network
must first obtain an address.
Address management in MANETs
poses particular challenges, due
to their operation conditions, their
dynamic topology and the unique
events that take place inside them.
This article presents an approach
for solving the address management
problem in this environment, using
the self-organization and emergency
principles governing the behavior of
social insect colonies, particularly ant
colonies. The article presents results
that evaluate the proposal’s validity
and efficiency through several scenarios.
Three fundamental aspects
were evaluated: Model functionality,
efficiency and impact on user applications.
The obtained results show the
proposed model is able to identify,
manage and solve all the events
related to address management in a
MANET, in an efficient manner.
