Multi-homed mobile hosts situated in physical proximity may spontaneously team up to run high-bandwidth applications by pooling their low wireless wide-area network (WWAN) bandwid...
Sensor networks are expected to evolve into long-lived, autonomous networked systems whose main mission is to provide in-situ users ? called actors ? with real-time information in...

We study a novel hierarchical wireless networking approach in which some of the nodes are more capable than others. In such networks, the more capable nodes can serve as Mobile Ba...
We consider a wireless sensor network in which sensors are grouped into clusters, each with its own cluster head (CH). Each CH collects data from sensors in its cluster and relays...
IEEE 802.11 MAC, called the Distributed Coordination Function (DCF), employs carrier sensing to effectively avoid collisions, but this makes it difficult to maximally reuse the sp...
