In this paper, we develop a random access scheme which combines the widely used binary exponential backoff (BEB) algorithm with a cross-layer tree algorithm (TA) that relies on suc...
This paper studies the inherent trade-off between termination probability and total step complexity of randomized consensus algorithms. It shows that for every integer k, the prob...
— Energy consumption is a main issue of concern in wireless networks. Energy minimization increases the time that networks’ nodes work properly without recharging or substituti...
A cross-layered slotted ALOHA protocol is proposed and analyzed for distributed estimation in sensor networks. Suppose that the sensors in the network record local measurements of ...
Token passing is a channel access technique used in several communication networks. Among them, one of the most effective solution for supporting both real-time traffic (synchron...
