Abstract
A system for identifying an optimal route in a network is disclosed. The system includes a destination node having an associated node address, a source node having an associated node address, and a number of intermediate nodes each having an associated node address. The intermediate nodes include a number of neighboring nodes associated with the source node. The source node is configured to select one or more of the neighboring nodes to receive a route request. The selection of the selected one or more neighboring nodes is based on the location information associated with the destination node and the selected one or more neighboring nodes. One or more of the selected one or more neighboring nodes propagate their route requests received from the source node to the destination node along one or more routes.
