Hello

I have a question in regards to ip address allocation in an ad hoc
environment. In an ad hoc environment presumely ip addresses will be
allocated dynamically to new nodes as they attach themselves to the
network.

Is there much research out there into how exactly this will be done. 
I know in a normal network it can be done through a dhcp server, but
in an ad hoc environment you cant really assume a dhcp server will be
available.
