Abstract--Current data network scenario makes Traffic Engineering (TE) a very challenging task. The ever growing access rates and new applications running on end-hosts result in mo...
—It is well known that IEEE 802.11 provides a physical layer multirate capability and, hence, MAC layer mechanisms are needed to exploit this capability. Several solutions have b...
Power management is an important technique to prolong the lifetime of battery-powered wireless ad hoc networks. The fact that the energy consumed in the idle state dominates the t...
—Routing in ad hoc networks is a well known issue. Most of the previous propositions to route data between two nodes aimed to define a path (sometimes several ones) on which pac...
—We reconsider the problem of geographic routing in wireless ad hoc networks. We are interested in local, memoryless routing algorithms, i.e. each network node bases its routing ...
