We investigate deterministic broadcasting on multiple-access channels in the framework of adversarial queuing. A protocol is stable when the number of packets stays bounded, and it...

Next-generation e-Science applications will require the ability to transfer information at high data rates between distributed computing centers and data repositories. To support ...
Radio duty cycling has received significant attention in sensor networking literature, particularly in the form of protocols for medium access control and topology management. Whi...
Abstract—Contending flows in multi-hop 802.11 wireless networks compete with two fundamental asymmetries: (i) channel asymmetry, in which one flow has a stronger signal, potent...
Energy is the most crucial but scarce resource in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). A wealth of MAC protocols are proposed only to prolong the network lifetime for energy-efficienc...
