The goal is to build a general framework for ad hoc applications over large networks using semantics and complex systems analysis. The first part deals with semantics because appl...
— Many distributed multiple access (MAC) protocols use an exponential backoff mechanism. In that mechanism, a node picks a random backoff time uniformly in an interval that doubl...
An ad hoc network is a collection of computers (nodes) that cooperate to forward packets for each other over a multihop wireless network. Users of such networks may wish to use de...
The line-of-sight networks is a network model introduced recently by Frieze et al. (SODA’07). It considers scenarios of wireless networks in which the underlying environment has...
One of the most evident characteristics of an ad hoc ubiquitous computing environment is the dynamism of connections. Due to the mobility of nodes, paths between communicating pee...
