Wireless networking and group communication in combination allows groups of dispersed mobile users to collaborate. This paper presents AGENT, a medium access control (MAC) protocol...
Abstract. BitTorrent is one of the Internet’s most efficient content distribution protocols. It is known to perform very well over the wired Internet where end-to-end performance...
Wireless sensor nodes generally face serious limitations in terms of computational power, energy supply, and network bandwidth. Therefore, the implementation of effective and sec...
In this paper, we investigate the low coverage problem of efficient broadcast protocols in wireless ad hoc networks with realistic physical layer models. To minimize energy consum...
Ad hoc networks rely on nodes forwarding each other’s packets, making trust and cooperation key issues for ensuring network performance. As long as all nodes in the network belo...
