ABSTRACT
The goal of the Transhumance project is to devise a software platform to support the execution of collaborative applications in a mobile ad hoc network. The application designed to demonstrate the Transhumance platform is a pervasive collaborative treasure hunting game named “Team Exploration”. The paper presents this application. It describes the functionalities of the Transhumance platform. It then proposes an analysis of the mobile ad hoc network technology characteristics and potential for future collaborative games through the experience gained in designing and experimenting with the game “Team Exploration”.

KEYWORDS: design, collaborative games, MANet.

ABSTRACT
This paper presents Transhumance a middleware supporting peer-to-peer applications on pocket PC-based mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs).  Transhumance provides full communication and deployment facilities as well as complete and extended data sharing facilities. It also addresses two missing points in the existing middleware: security and power management. It targets small networks of up to 20 mobile nodes.

KEYWORDS: Mobile ad hoc networks, middleware, data sharing, power-sensitive, security
