—Conventional 802.11 medium access control (MAC) characteristics. In particular, all of these designs adopted a protocols have been designed separately from the characteristics s...
A new platform for reconfigurable computing has an object-based programming model, with architecture, silicon and tools designed to faithfully realize this model. The platform is ...
Due to hidden terminals and a dynamic topology, contention among stations in an ad-hoc network is not homogeneous. Some stations are at a disadvantage in opportunity of access to ...
Modelling complex concurrent systems is often difficult and error-prone, in particular when new concepts coming from advanced practical applications are considered. These new appl...
In this paper, we introduce a novel medium access control (MAC) protocol for Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) systems. This protocol exploits the Markov Chain Model of Slotted...
