We consider sensor networks in which individual nodes with on-board sensing and low-power transmitters and receivers establish connections with neighboring nodes. The overall objec...
Maximizing the aggregate network utility and minimizing the network energy consumption are important but conflict goals in wireless sensor networks. Challenges arise due to the app...
— Multicast-based data communication is an efficient communication scheme especially in multihop ad hoc networks where the MAC layer is based on one-hop broadcast from one sourc...
