Three collision-avoidance protocols are analyzed that use omni-directional packet reception together with omnidirectional transmissions, directional transmissions, or a combinatio...
Nodes in ad hoc networks generally transmit data at regular intervals over long periods of time. Recently, ad hoc network nodes have been built that run on little power and have v...
This paper investigates the power mode management problem for an IEEE 802.11-based mobile ad hoc network (MANET) that allows mobile hosts to tune to the power-saving (PS) mode. The...
A hardware-assisted design, dubbed cache-oriented multistage structure (COMS), is proposed for fast packet forwarding. COMS incorporates small on-chip cache memory in its constitu...
Today, in many practical E-Commerce systems, the real stored data usually are short strings, such as names, addresses, or other information. Searching data within these short stri...
