A Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) is characterized by the lack of any infrastructure, absence of any kind of centralized administration, frequent mobility of nodes, network partitio...
Abstract-- We identify an analytical expression for the distortion of a scalable video bitstream containing a Base Layer (BL) and one or more Enhancement Layer (EL) bitstreams. Con...
—We use recent network calculus results to study some properties of lossless multiplexing as it may be used in guaranteed service networks. We call network calculus a set of resu...
Abstract--This work studies the near-optimality versus the complexity of distributed configuration management for wireless networks. We first develop a global probabilistic graphic...
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are typically characterized by a limited energy supply at sensor nodes. Hence, energy efficiency is an important issue in the system design and op...
