Abstract
Reliability of ad-hoc networks is newly (circa 2006) a focus area in the literature and for defense networks. The adhoc network provides flexibility for its users. However, no deterministic calculation describes the network's reliability. Here, the authors build upon a stochastic approach of their own advent a Probabilistic Solution Discovery (PSD) algorithm. Combined the stochastic method and PSD provide the ability to optimize then network's topology. Specifically, the decision vector represents each node's assignment into subsidiary networks. The constraint can be a cost, weight or any other additive metric. Finally, one may select to maximize one of three reliability metrics.
