This paper addresses the problem of optimizing the packet transmission schedule in an ad hoc network with end-toend delay constraints. The emphasis is to determine the proper rela...
Traditionally, ad hoc networks have been viewed as a connected graph over which end-to-end routing paths had to be established. Mobility was considered a necessary evil that inval...
We study a novel hierarchical wireless networking approach in which some of the nodes are more capable than others. In such networks, the more capable nodes can serve as Mobile Ba...
We consider a wireless sensor network in which sensors are grouped into clusters, each with its own cluster head (CH). Each CH collects data from sensors in its cluster and relays...
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...
