Abstract. Renewed interest in ALOHA-based Medium Access Control (MAC) protocols stems from their proposed applications to wireless ad hoc and sensor networks that require distribut...
We present an integrated dual approach to reduce power consumption in infrastructure-mode 802.11 wireless LANs. A novel distributed power control algorithm adaptively adjusts the ...
With the rapid growth in wireless networks and sensor and mobile devices, we are moving towards an era of pervasive computing. Access control is challenging in these environments. ...
The control of robot swarming in a distributed manner is a difficult problem because global behaviors must emerge as a result of many local actions. This paper uses a bio-inspired ...

Abstract-- We present a new, biologically-inspired algorithm for the problem of covering a given region with wireless "units" (sensors or base-stations). The general prob...
