    abstract = {Packet forwarding presents a difficult challenge in Mobile 
  <I>Ad hoc</I> Networks (MANETs) due to mobility, dynamic topology and lack of 
  centralized management. Misbehavior due to selfishness or malice and lack of 
  cooperation among nodes severely degrades the performance of the network. Most 
  of the <I>ad hoc</I> routing protocol assumes that all the nodes are reliable 
  and cooperative which is not true. Implementing security mechanisms including 
  cryptographic techniques are overhead intensive and does not guarantee in performance 
  improvement. In this study, an improved <I>Ad hoc</I> On-Demand Distance Vector 
  (AODV), Nearest Neighbor Reputation (NNR) AODV is proposed. The focus in this 
  research is to improve the performance of the network using reputation factors 
  for route discovery. Another advantage of the proposed mechanism is enhanced 
  security over the existing security mechanism.}
