Self-organization is a great concept for building scalable systems consisting of a huge number of subsystems. The primary objectives are improved scalability and dynamic adaptatio...
This paper proposes a location service to assist location-based routing protocols, realized through a novel Associativity-Based clustering protocol. The main goal of our scheme, w...
Quorums are a basic construct in solving many fundamental distributed computing problems. One of the known ways of making quorums scalable and efficient is by weakening their int...
In a multi-hop wireless network, each node is able to send a message to all of its neighbors that are located within its transmission radius. In a flooding task, a source sends th...
In future smart environments, ad hoc sensor networks will play a key role in sensing, collecting, and disseminating information about environmental phenomena. As sensor networks c...
