The low quality of wireless links leads to perpetual packet losses. While an acknowledgment mechanism is generally used to cope with these losses, multiple retransmissions neverthe...
— In Wireless Sensor and Actor Networks (WSANs), the collaborative operation of sensors enables the distributed sensing of a physical phenomenon, while actors collect and process...
—Multimedia streaming over ad hoc networks forms a continuous progress domain due to users’ growing needs and wireless devices incessant evolution. Our objective, in this study...
—In many applications, it is a basic operation for the sink to periodically collect reports from all sensors. Since the data gathering process usually proceeds for many rounds, i...
Abstract--Time synchronization is a critical service for distributed network systems. In this work, we investigate this problem in the context of underwater sensor networks (UWSNs)...
