Abstract— In wireless mesh networks, the end-to-end throughput of traffic flows depends on the path length, i.e. the higher the number of hops, the lower becomes the throughput...

— Many distributed multiple access (MAC) protocols use an exponential backoff mechanism. In that mechanism, a node picks a random backoff time uniformly in an interval that doubl...
—Dynamic Bandwidth allocation in Ethernet Passive Optical Networks (EPONs) has been an area of intense research in recent years. Most of the proposed solutions offer clever metho...
In this paper, we propose to use a simple packet servicing algorithm suitable for servicing bursty real-time multimedia traffic streams in packet-switched networks. These real-tim...
This paper describes an algorithm, called Dynamic Window-Constrained Scheduling (DWCS), designed to meet the service constraints on packets from multiple, network-bound media stre...
