—We extend the modeling heuristic of [1] to evaluate the performance of an IEEE 802.11e infrastructure network carrying packet telephone calls, streaming video sessions and TCP c...
Let G = (V, E, w) be a directed graph, where w : V → R is an arbitrary weight function defined on its vertices. The bottleneck weight, or the capacity, of a path is the smalles...
