— Routing is the foremost issue in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs), In a wireless environment characterized by small bandwidth and limited computation resources, positionbased ro...
— In existing query-based routing protocols in wireless sensor networks (WSNs), a node either keeps precise route information to desired events, such as in event flooding, or do...
Abstract— In this paper, we study the performance of clientAccess Point (AP) association policies in IEEE 802.11 based WLANs. In many scenarios, clients have a choice of APs with...
— This paper reverse-engineers backoff-based random-access MAC protocols in ad-hoc networks. We show that the contention resolution algorithm in such protocols is implicitly part...
