We present a new hybrid algorithm for local search in distributed combinatorial optimization. This method is a mix between classical local search methods in which nodes take decis...
— In this paper we describe a time-based admission control scheme for Multimedia over IP services in wireless LANs based on the IEEE 802.11e standard. We build on an existing wor...

— We consider a point-to-multipoint cognitive radio network that shares a set of channels with a primary network. Within the cognitive radio network, a base station (BS) controls...
— In this paper, we consider time-and-frequency hopping (TFH) codes for optical code-division multiple-access (OCDMA) networks. To support the differentiated service requirements...
— We consider opportunistic spectrum access (OSA) which allows secondary users to identify and exploit instantaneous spectrum opportunities resulting from the bursty traffic of ...
