Medium Access Control with Dynamic Frame Length in Wireless Sensor Networks
Wireless sensor networks consist of sensor nodes which are expected to be battery-powered and are hard to replace or recharge. Thus, reducing the energy consumption of sensor nodes...

A Probabilistic Topology Unaware TDMA Medium Access Control Policy for Ad Hoc Environments
The design of an efficient Medium Access Control (MAC) is challenging in ad-hoc networks where users can enter, leave or move inside the network without any need for prior configu...

Synchronization of strongly pulse-coupled oscillators with refractory periods and random medium access
The weakly pulse-coupled oscillator framework has proven to be a valuable resource for the development of peer-to-peer synchronization algorithms [9]. But leveraging it in a pract...
