— Group communications are important in Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANET). Multicast is an efficient method to implement the group communications. However, it is challenging to imp...
Many important applications in wireless mesh networks require reliable multicast communication. Previously, Forward Error Correction (FEC) techniques have been proved successful f...
In an open network such as the Internet, multicast security services typically start with group session-key distribution. Considering scalability for group communication among wide...
In this paper, we address the problem of cross-layer optimization in medium access control (MAC) and network layers for wireless multicasting with multiple cooperative or competit...
– We examine in this paper the tradeoff between application complexity, network complexity, and network efficiency. We argue that the design of the current Internet reflects a ...
