This paper proposes a new principle for designing MAC protocols for spread spectrum based ad hoc networks ? inducing spatial clustering in contending transmitters/receivers. We fi...
— An ad hoc network may be logically represented as a set of clusters. The clusterheads form a -hop dominating set. Each node is at most hops from a clusterhead. Clusterheads for...

The increasing ubiquity of mobile devices has led to an explosion in the development of applications tailored to the particular needs of individual users. As the research communit...
Many interesting applications using mobile ad-hoc networks are possible if quality-of-service (QoS) can be effectively supported. Towards that end, this paper proposes a method ba...
Abstract. We propose a distributed and adaptive topology management algorithm, called PATM (Priority-based Adaptive Topology Management), that constructs and maintains a connected ...
