Abstract: Mobile Ad Hoc Computational Networks (MAHCN) is an advanced field in the mobile networking because of the explosive advancement in communication technologies and mobile devices. MAHCN simply divides a given task into few subtasks and assign those subtasks to all the available mobile devices in the Mobile Ad Hoc Network. The allocated mobile devices compute those subtasks assigned to them. The results from all these mobile devices are finally collected by the MAHCN. There is a large variety of the applications for the MAHCN, where the information is needed to be collected simultaneously from the various sources and all these information is needed to be processed together. Ontology is used in this technique for the processing the gathered data and to summarize it, so that the users can get the desired data and use them further. But the main issues in such mobile sensor nodes, is the limitations of energy, computational power etc. Our proposed work deals with this problem, and provides energy efficient assignment of nodes in MAHCN. The proposed scheme analyzes the tasks within the applications and then uses this analysis information for resource allocation. The Ontology is then used for summarization tasks, after collecting the information.
