Access links are typically the bottleneck between a high bandwidth LAN and a high bandwidth IP network. Without a priori resource provisioning or reservation, this tends to have a...
—We consider opportunistic communications over multiple channels where the state (“good” or “bad”) of each channel evolves as independent and identically distributed Mark...
— The popularity of IEEE 802.11 WLANs has led to dense deployments in urban areas. High density leads to suboptimal performance unless the interfering networks learn how to optim...
Opportunistic user access scheduling enhances the capacity of wireless networks by exploiting the multi user diversity. When frame aggregation is used, opportunistic schemes are no...
The paper presents an MPEG-7 Multimedia Description Schemes (MDS)-based metadata and user profile model used within an enhanced DTV environment for semantic annotation and person...
