Good network hardware performance is often squandered by overheads for accessing the network interface (NI) within a host. NIs that support user-level messaging avoid frequent ope...
To ensure fair and secure communication in Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs), the applications running in these networks must be regulated by proper communication policies. However,...
A rational P2P node may decide not to provide a particular resource or to provide it with degraded quality. If nodes are very likely to behave this way, or if the failure of an P2...

This paper bears on the design and the quantitative evaluation of MAC mechanisms for wireless ad-hoc networks with performance guarantees. By this, we mean mechanisms where each ac...
—Enhanced distributed channel access (EDCA) is the basis protocol in IEEE 802.11e protocol suite. It is used for providing differentiated quality of service (QoS) in IEEE 802.11e...
