We present the results of a performance evaluation of link layer error recovery over wireless links. Our analysis is based upon a case study of the circuit-switched data service i...
Reliable transport protocols such as TCP are tuned to perform well in traditional networks where packet losses occur mostly because of congestion. However, networks with wireless ...

Existing transport protocols, be it TCP, SCTP or DCCP, do not provide an efficient congestion control mechanism for heterogeneous wired-cum-wireless networks. Solutions involving i...
— Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are generally used for harsh environments involving military surveillance, emergency response, and habitat monitoring. Due to severe resource co...
