Sleep-wake protocols are critical in sensor networks to ensure long-lived operation. However, an open problem is how to develop efficient mechanisms that can be incorporated with ...
— To enable real-time and robust message delivery, the highly mobile Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs) call for comprehensive investigation on the dynamic power control effects ...
— This paper addresses the problem of inter-domain QoS routing. We propose a solution based on virtual-trunk type aggregates corresponding to Service Level Agreements (SLA) for d...
Abstract— Extending network lifetime of battery-operated devices is a key design issue that allows uninterrupted information exchange among distributive nodes in wireless sensor ...
— A control frame can be piggybacked in a data frame to increase the channel efficiency in a wireless communication such as IEEE 802.11 WLAN. However, the piggyback scheme may c...
