Abstract
A mechanism which can achieve enhanced network performance in wireless P2P groups is disclosed. A method for group reformation in wireless peer-to-peer (P2P) networks, includes: monitoring traffic of a first device of a first P2P group, the first device communicating with a second device of at least one second P2P group; and altering group formation of the first and second P2P groups so as to put the first device and the second device together in a single P2P group, based on monitored traffic of the first device.
