Abstract: A method comprising: forming a cluster comprising at least two network nodes, wherein each of said network nodes comprises at least a wireless transceiver and at least one application server; continuously acquiring, by each of said network nodes, cluster topological data from at least some of said other network nodes; continuously transmitting, by each of said network nodes, to at least some of said other network nodes, said acquired topological data; designating, based at least in part on said transmitted topological data, a cluster head; and selecting, by said cluster head, at least one of said other network nodes in said cluster to provide one or more services associated with its respective at least one application server, wherein said one or more services are provided to all other network nodes.
