    ABSTRACT:: Much of the current research in mobile networking investigates how to
support a mobile user within an established infrastructure of routers 
and servers.  Ad hoc networks come into play when no such established
infrastructure exits.  This paper presents a two-stage protocol to solve
the resource discovery problem in ad hoc networks: how hosts discover
what resources are available in the network and how they discover how to use
the resources.  This protocol does not require any established servers or 
other infrastructure.  It only requires routing capabilities in the network.
