Intelligent packet dropping for optimal energy-delay tradeoffs in wireless downlinks
— We explore the advantages of intelligently dropping a small fraction of packets that arrive for transmission over a time varying wireless downlink. Without packet dropping, the...

Ad Hoc networks with topology-transparent scheduling schemes: Scaling laws and capacity/delay tradeoffs
— In this paper we investigate the limiting properties, in terms of capacity and delay, of an ad hoc network employing a topology-transparent scheduling scheme. In particular, we...
