Abstract
File searching turns out to be difficult since nodes in MANETs move around freely and can exchange information only when they are within the communication range. Broadcasting can quickly discover files, but it leads to the broadcast storm problem with high energy consumption. File sharing applications in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) have attracted more and more attention in recent years. The efficiency of file querying suffers from the distinctive properties of such networks including node mobility and limited communication range and resource. An intuitive method to alleviate this problem is to create file replicas in the network. However, despite the efforts on file replication, no research has focused on the global optimal replica creation with minimum average querying delay. Specifically, current file replication protocols in mobile ad hoc networks have two shortcomings.
