Summary: A new routing protocol, MRIRS, is proposed in this study to address challenges such as route failure and end-to-end delay in mobile ad hoc networks. By utilizing intelligent reflecting surfaces (IRSs) as intermediate nodes, MRIRS enables multi-flow multi-path routing, minimizes delay during route discovery, and helps primary users avoid interference. The protocol shows improvements in packet delivery ratio, end-to-end delay, and throughput compared to other routing protocols, especially in scenarios with higher node speeds.

Summary: Virtual tourism has gained popularity among the younger generation due to travel restrictions, safety concerns, and expensive travelling. However, service providers in virtual tourism do not financially benefit as compared to traditional tourism stakeholders. A blockchain-based broker service is proposed to address this issue, allowing tourism sites to offer virtual tours while providing accessibility and accountability. Users can register, subscribe, access, and be billed according to their usage through an online system that includes permission and payment control. The proposed system ensures authentication, authorization, and accountability through permission and usage control modules. Transactions are stored on the blockchain to guarantee data integrity, and smart contracts are used for automatic usage and permission control. An implementation on Hyperledger Fabric is provided as proof of concept, with performance measurements as a case study.
