Aloha-type random-access protocols have been employed as access control protocols in wireline and wireless, stationary and mobile, multiple-access communications networks. They are...
Despite its support of prioritized services, the IEEE 802.11e Enhanced Distributed Channel Access (EDCA) cannot guarantee strict QoS required by real-time services such as voice a...
Research in the concurrency control of real-time data access over mobile networks is receiving growing attention. With possibly lengthy transmission delay and frequent disconnecti...
Despite the advantages offered by pure Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networks (e.g. robustness and fault tolerance), a crucial requirement is to guarantee basic security properties, such as ...
— In this paper, we study the survivability problem in hierarchical wireless access networks with dual-homed end users, who are connected to two base stations (BSs), a primary BS...
