— Recent years have seen tremendous growth in the deployment of Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs). An important design issue in such networks is that of distributed scheduling...
Sensor networks are expected to evolve into long-lived, autonomous networked systems whose main mission is to provide in-situ users ? called actors ? with real-time information in...

— The standard IEEE 802.15.4 medium access control (MAC) protocol is designed for low-power transmissions in low-rate and short-distance wireless personal area networks (WPANs). ...
We investigate the impact of power control on latency in wireless ad-hoc networks. If transmission power is increased, interference increases, thus reducing network capacity. A no...
— In multihop wireless networks where a random access MAC scheme such as CSMA/CA is used, nodes greedily compete in a distributed manner and are unaware of the interference they ...
