This paper investigates the energy cost of control packets in schedule-based medium access control protocols in wireless sensor networks. Control packets can be useful not only to ...
Scheduling is a critical and challenging resource allocation mechanism for multi-hop wireless networks. It is well known that scheduling schemes that give a higher priority to the ...
—In this paper, we present a novel approach for improving the performance of a large class of CPU and memory intensive passive network monitoring applications, such as intrusion ...
