Abstract

DART dynamically assigns addresses to Nodes according to their relative location within the network. When a Node joins or moves the network, or a Link or Node fails addresses are dynamically updated. If some Nodes are mobile (either clients or servers) the ability to route to and from the mobile Node persists. Link failures, caused by movement, or otherwise, can be similarly accommodated.
