Distributed applications execute in environments that can include different network architectures as well as a range of compute platforms. Furthermore, these resources are shared ...
We investigate if WiFi access can be used to augment 3G capacity in mobile environments. We first conduct a detailed study of 3G and WiFi access from moving vehicles, in three dif...
The performance of Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) often suffers from link-layer frame losses caused by noise, interference, multipath, attenuation, and user mobility. We obs...

We consider the problem of broadcasting multiple variable-bit-rate (VBR) video streams from a base station to many mobile devices over a wireless network, so that: (i) perceived q...
—WPAN technologies such as IEEE 802.15.4 have been introduced to allow for energy-efficient communication of control and sensor data. In certain application areas, it is benefici...
