Characterizing the exit process of a non-saturated IEEE 802.11 wireless network
In this paper, we consider a non-saturated IEEE 802.11 based wireless network. We use a three-way fixed point to model the node behavior with Bernoulli packet arrivals and determi...

Energy-efficient capture of stochastic events by global- and local-periodic network coverage
We consider a high density of sensors randomly placed in a geographical area for event monitoring. The monitoring regions of the sensors may have significant overlap, and a subset...
