— Incentive protocols play a crucial role to encourage cooperation among nodes in networking applications. The aim of this paper is to provide a general analytical framework to a...
— In this paper, we present an analytical method to evaluate the bit error rate (BER) of the ultra-wideband (UWB) system in the IEEE 802.15.4a standardized channel model. The IEE...
We consider the problem of multi-cell downlink beamforming with N cells and K terminals per cell. Cooperation among base stations (BSs) has been found to increase the system throug...
This research aims to develop a model of trust and reputation that will ensure good interactions amongst software agents in large scale open systems. The following are key drivers...
