	%X This paper reports a distributed mutual exclusion
algorithm for mobile Ad-hoc networks. The network is clustered
hierarchically. The proposed algorithm considers the clustered
network as a logical tree and develops a token passing scheme
to get the mutual exclusion. The performance analysis and
simulation results show that its message requirement is optimal,
and thus the algorithm is energy efficient.
