Standard "new-Reno" TCP faces some performance limitations in very high throughput IP WAN networks, (e.g., computing grids) due to a long end-to-end congestion feedback l...
Wireless technology has been seen as the communication technology of the future. One of many challenges is the support for predictability and time-bounded communications over this ...
—Recharging the batteries of a moribund sensor deployed as part of a wireless sensor network is often infeasible due to logistical considerations. With the purpose of prolonging ...
We study, from the competitive analysis perspective, the trade off between communication cost and delay cost (or simply the sendor-wait dilemma) on a hierarchy (rooted tree). The p...
Abstract. The IEEE 802.11 MAC layer is known for its unfairness behavior in ad hoc networks. Introducing fairness in the 802.11 MAC protocol may lead to a global throughput decreas...
