Abstract—In this paper, we address the issue of transmission power control in wireless ad-hoc networks. In general, it is assumed that minimum transmission power achieves the opt...
The increase of IEEE 802.11’s bandwidth led to a deployment of many multimedia applications over wireless networks. Nevertheless, these applications impose stringent constraints...
Through web service technology, distributed applications can be built in a exible manner, bringing tremendous power to applications on the web. However, this exibility poses sig...
An e-contract is a contract modeled, specified, executed, controlled and monitored by a software system. Econtract evolves over a period of time and there are many scenarios of ch...
