Flooding is a fundamental building block of unstructured peer-to-peer (P2P) systems. In this paper, we investigate techniques to improve the performance of flooding. In particular...
Abstract. Sensing mechanisms that estimate the occupancy of wireless spectrum are crucial to the success of approaches based on Dynamic Spectrum Access. In this paper, we present k...

The (M, W)-controller, originally studied by Afek, Awerbuch, Plotkin, and Saks, is a basic ted tool that provides an abstraction for managing the consumption of a global resource ...
Abstract— The objective of the paper is to provide qualitative insight into the global effects of distributed mechanisms, such as carrier sense multiple access (CSMA) and rate co...
Abstract-- We consider a one-hop wireless network with independent time varying channels and N users, such as a multiuser uplink or downlink. We first show that general classes of ...
