Call admission control (CAC) is one important QoS mechanism for maintaining performance of streaming media services. In this paper, we propose a novel CAC algorithm, which handles...
By functionally decomposing a specific algorithm (the hierarchical secure aggregation algorithm of Chan et al. [3] and Frikken et al. [7]), we uncover a useful general functionali...
We present Gatekeeper, a decentralized protocol that performs Sybil-resilient node admission control based on a social network. Gatekeeper can admit most honest nodes while limiti...
The delay and throughput characteristics of a packet switch depend mainly on the queueing scheme and the scheduling algorithm deployed at the switch. Early research on scheduling ...
This paper proposes a medium access control (MAC) protocol for ad hoc wireless networks that utilizes multiple channels dynamically to improve performance. The IEEE 802.11 standar...
