lLots of work on ROUTING PROTOCOLS, though very little on avoiding packet loss due to route failure
uFlow Oriented Routing Protocol (FORP): destination
predicts topology change based
on the Link Expiration Time
uAssociativity Based Routing (ABR), Signal
Stability-Based Adaptive
Routing (SSA) favor longer-live routes
lPaper in MobiCom 2001
uAlso uses signal power strength
uGoal: reduce packet latency
uDifferent approach: preemptive zone, based on
threshold
uAt least 2 times increase in routing protocol overhead
