In order for pervasive computing to realize its full potential, pervasive applications have to be able to operate without support from fixed communication infrastructure at least ...
We investigate the problem of maximizing the lifetime of wireless ad hoc and sensor networks. Being battery powered, nodes in such networks have to perform their intended task und...
Abstract. Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks, or MANETs, provide communication between free-roaming mobile hosts without a fixed infrastructure. These MANETs operate under conditions of limite...
Mobile ad hoc network (MANET) has been generally regarded as an ideal network model for group communications because of its specialty of instant establishment. However, the securit...
We present a novel distributed algorithm for the maximal independent set (MIS) problem.1 On bounded-independence graphs (BIG) our deterministic algorithm finishes in O(log n) time,...
