This paper proposes a location service to assist location-based routing protocols, realized through a novel Associativity-Based clustering protocol. The main goal of our scheme, w...
IEEE 802.11 MAC, called the Distributed Coordination Function (DCF), employs carrier sensing to effectively avoid collisions, but this makes it difficult to maximally reuse the sp...
While several approaches have been proposed in literature for improving the performance of wireless packet data networks, a recent class of approaches has focused on improving the...
In an ad hoc network, the use of source routing has many advantages, including simplicity, correctness, and flexibility. For example, all routing decisions for a packet are made b...
Abstract. In this paper, we propose and evaluate RIDA, a novel informationdriven architecture for distributed data compression in a sensor network, allowing it to conserve energy a...
