Since the physical topology of Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs) is generally unstable, an appealing approach is the construction of a stable and robust virtual topology or backbone...
We consider ad hoc wireless networks that use directional antennas and have limited energy resources. To explore quantitatively the advantage offered by the use of directional ante...

Energy consumption in general and interference in particular are among the most critical issues in wireless networks. In this paper we present the E-BUM calculus, a Energy-aware ca...
The characteristics of ad hoc networks naturally encourage the deployment of distributed services. Although current networks implement group communication methods, they do not sup...
Existing studies on the design of routing protocols for wireless ad hoc networks mainly focused on energy efficiency. However, in many real-time applications such as target trackin...
