We are facing a growing user demand for ubiquitous Internet access. As a result, network ports and wireless LANs are becoming common in public spaces inside buildings such as loung...
—In this paper, the IEEE 802.16 protocol is investigated with respect to the bandwidth provision problem arising at the Medium Access Control (MAC) layer. The aim is to optimally...
— Data aggregation is a method used in sensor networks to reduce the amount of messages transported. By aggregating, the data contained in several messages is fused into one sing...

In energy constrained wireless sensor networks, energy conservation techniques are to be applied in order to maximize the system lifetime. We tackle the problem of increasing netw...
In this paper, we introduce two protocols - a routing and a broadcasting protocol - for ad-hoc networks which are based on a new paradigm enabled by the broadcast property of the w...
