%X The adaptation of structured P2P networks, i.e.
Distributed Hash Tables (DHTs), to wireless ad-hoc networks has
been investigated in recent years. Existing work assume all peers
would come to an agreement on establishing one uniform DHT
across the entire network. However, in reality, there isn’t a defacto
standard of DHT implementation, different DHTs co-exist.
We present a novel protocol, known as the DHT-gatewaying
model, which enables cross-DHT searching between multiple
DHTs of different implementations.
