3.TITLE: Comparison of ad hoc (mobile) peer-to-peer /overlay systems
Peer-to-peer and overlay systems are able and have been developed to run over ad hoc networks.
TARGET: Compare different ad hoc peer-to-peer/overlay systems. How do the various MANET specific problems (scarce energy resources, routing, security, performance etc.) affect peer-to-peer/overlay systems? Can these systems alleviate MANET specific problems? What are the benefits and drawbacks? Major problems? Potential solutions?
REQUIRES: Relatively recent study items that require more thorough data-mining and leave room for original thinking. This topic is suitable for postgraduates

4.TITLE: Comparison of peer-to-peer /overlay systems in heterogeneous networks
It is probable that as time passes the diversity of networking solutions and technologies will continue to increase.
TARGET: Compare peer-to-peer systems in heterogeneous networks (home, ad hoc, cellular, Intranet, Internet). How do the algorithms scale in these environments (in terms of performance)? What are the benefits and drawbacks? Major problems? Potential solutions?
