Smart antennas are expected to enhance scalability in ad hoc networks. This paper at first evaluates three directional MAC protocols, DMAC, MMAC and SWAMP as well as the omni-dir...
Current federated systems deploy cost-based query optimization mechanisms; i.e., the optimizer selects a global query plan with the lowest cost to execute. Thus, cost functions in...
