The internet of things (IoT) is expected to influence both architecture and infrastructure of current and future smart cities vision. Thus, the requirement and effectiveness of making cities smarter demands suitable provision of secure and efficient communication networks between IoT networking devices. Trust-based routing protocols play an important role in IoT for secure information exchange and communications between IoT networking elements. Thus, this chapter presents the foundation of trust-based protocols from social science to IoT for secure smart city environments. The chapter outlines and discusses the key ideas, notions, and theories that may help the reader to understand the current status and the possible future trends of trust-based protocols in IoT networks for smart cities. The chapter also discusses the implications, requirements, and future research challenges of trust-based protocols in IoT for smart cities.

In vehicular cloud computing systems (VCC), the overlapping transmission range of each vehicle ensures a unified and common channel for communication among the vehicles. The flexibility of VCC systems opens the door to myriad applications that contribute to the safety and comfort of the passengers. They are distributed, self-organizing communication networks built up by moving vehicles, and are thus characterized by very high node mobility and limited degrees of freedom in mobility patterns. Such particular features often make the standard networking protocol inefficient or unusable, hence the growing effort in the development of communication protocols, which are specific to vehicular networks. Routing protocols should be selected carefully after carrying out literature review. This chapter has investigated different on-demand routing protocols and focused to identify the efficient on-demand routing protocol that can give better performance in realistic environments of vehicular cloud computing systems.

: The ever-developing technologies in wireless communication networks have the urge for integrating smartness and automation into these networks. This survey paper presents the literature on the rising field of self-organization as a new concept applied to wireless communication networks over the last two decades. We make an in-depth survey of the current literature, standards as well as projects in self-organizing communication networks. Also, our objective is to show a deep knowledge of this active field of research, by defining a simple taxonomy, algorithms, architectures, routing protocols, and security aspects for the design and implementation of self-organizing techniques. Also, we discuss existing solutions, compare their strength and weakness, point out assessment metrics and measurements, and mention the main research scopes for subsequent evolution. This article may act as a starting point and guidance for anybody who seeks to investigate the researches done on self-organization in the area of wireless communication networks.

One of the key components of communication networks, which determines the principles of their operation, are traffic routing protocols. The purpose of this article is to consider the possibility of using widely used dynamic routing protocols in LEO satellite communication systems. Based on the available publications, the analysis of the initial data was carried out and the conditions for the functioning of routing protocols in low-orbit satellite communication systems, as well as the basic requirements for such protocols, were formulated. The analysis of the functioning of the dynamic routing protocols in the given conditions is carried out. The disadvantages of the considered protocols are highlighted and characterized. The main conclusion of the article is the inexpediency of using the considered protocols in low-orbit satellite communication networks due to the high resource requirements and the insufficient speed of propagation of changes. The results can be used to substantiate technical solutions in the design of low-orbit satellite communication networks.

Maritime wireless mesh networks (MWMNs) are conceived to provide network connectivity for maritime users and enable them to communicate with correspondent users connected to terrestrial communication networks. The high cost and low data-rate of satellite and other legacy maritime communication technologies and systems deployed in MWMNs pose major limitation to establish reliable and affordable maritime communications. In addition, the design of routing protocols in MWMNs remains a significant challenge due to the lack of reliable communication infrastructure and complexity of maritime environment. This paper explains the existing maritime communication technologies and routing protocols which could be deployed in implementing reliable MWMNs. Comprehensive guidelines are outlined to easily understand and critically assess the different deployed maritime communication networks and systems with routing protocols, and identify the milestones in the process of developing and implementing broadband MWMNs.
