In large networks, maintaining precise global network state information is almost impossible. Many factors, such as non-negligible propagation delay, infrequent state updates due ...
Compression is widely used to reduce data transmission costs, but its impact on the performance of network entities such as web caches has not yet been studied. In this paper, we ...
This paper addresses the problem of data acquisition in ad hoc and sensor networks with mobile sinks and proposes a protocol based on swarm intelligence, SIMPLE, to route data in s...
Abstract— Cooperative diversiy is a promising technology for future wireless networks. In this paper, based on the moment generating function (MGF), we derive exact closed-form e...
