—Duty-cycle MAC protocols have been proposed to meet the demanding energy requirements of wireless sensor networks. Although existing duty-cycle MAC protocols such as S-MAC are p...
Uplink users in cellular networks, such as UMTS/ HSPA, located at the edge of the cell generally suffer from poor channel conditions. Deploying intermediate relay nodes is seen as ...

Abstract-- Relaying and orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) are the accepted technologies for emerging wireless communications standards. The activities in many w...
With the deployment of packetized wireless networks, the need for Quality of Service is becoming increasingly important. In order for QoS to be implemented and e ciently supported...
Information-driven networks include a large category of networking systems, where network nodes are aware of information delivered and thus can not only forward data packets but m...
