The goal of the GecGo middleware is to provide all the services required by self-organizing distributed applications running on multihop ad-hoc networks. Because of the frequent as...
We describe a reliable broadcast protocol for mobile multihop packet radio networks. The reliable broadcast service ensures that all the hosts in a group deliver the same set of m...
We introduce a class of anchoritic sensor networks, where communications between sensor nodes are undesirable or infeasible due to, e.g., harsh environments, energy constraints, or...
