In this paper, we present a simple distributed algorithm for resource allocation which simultaneously approximates the optimum value for a large class of objective functions. In p...
— Due to resource scarcity, a paramount concern in ad hoc networks is to utilize the limited resources efficiently. The self-organized nature of ad hoc networks makes the social...
Cognitive radio, which enables dynamic access of under-utilized licensed spectrums, is a promising technology for more efficient spectrum utilization. Since cognitive radio enables...
Abstract—Multichannel wireless networks provide the flexibility to utilize the available spectrum efficiently for achieving improved system performance in terms of throughput a...
It was shown recently [7?9], under quite general conditions, that retransmission-based protocols may result in power-law delays and possibly zero throughput even if the distributi...
