The virtual synchrony model for group communication has proven to be a powerful paradigm for building distributed applications. Implementations of virtual synchrony usually requir...
— Micro-payment systems have the potential to provide non-intrusive, high-volume and low-cost pay-asyou-use services for a wide variety of web-based applications. We proposed a n...
—Data caching can significantly improve the efficiency of information access in a wireless ad hoc network by reducing the access latency and bandwidth usage. However, designing e...
—Extracting planar graph from network topologies is of great importance for efficient protocol design in wireless ad hoc and sensor networks. Previous techniques of planar topol...
Aggregate traffic loads and topology in multi-hop wireless networks may vary slowly, permitting MAC protocols to `learn' how to spatially coordinate and adapt contention patte...
