Abstract
A Wireless Grid is an augmentation of a wired grid that facilitates the exchange of information and the interaction
between heterogeneous wireless devices. The ability of various grid layouts to handle interactions among the grid
constituencies is contingent upon the efficient resolution of multiple technical challenges of the grid. These
challenges arise due the added complexities of the wireless grid such as the limited power of the mobile devices, the
limited bandwidth (including partial connectivity), and the increased dynamic nature of the interactions involved.
This paper focuses on the configuration and administration issues of the wireless grid. The proposed grid topology
and naming protocol can allow self-configuration and self-administration of various possible wireless grid layouts
