Abstract--In this paper we analyze the energy-efficiency of distributed compression and its dependence on the node deployment strategies for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). Reduce...
Low cost devices such as RFIDs, sensor network nodes, and smartcards are crucial for building the next generation pervasive and ubiquitous networks. The inherent power and footpri...
This work focuses on improving the performance of video communications based on the recently developed H.264 Scalable Video Coding (SVC) standard over 802.11e wireless networks. Th...
This paper presents Virtual Ring Routing (VRR), a new network routing protocol that occupies a unique point in the design space. VRR is inspired by overlay routing algorithms in D...
