Abstract-Secure cooperation incentive schemes usually use public key cryptography, which incur too heavy overhead to be used efficiently in limited-resource nodes. In this paper, w...
In wireless channels, the path loss exponent (PLE) has a strong impact on the quality of the links, and hence, it needs to be accurately estimated for the efficient design and oper...
In this paper an efficient scheduling mechanism for wireless local area networks (WLAN) is proposed. This innovative scheme, named hybrid HCCA-EDCA centralised scheme (HHECS), is b...

This paper bears on the design and the quantitative evaluation of MAC mechanisms for wireless ad-hoc networks with performance guarantees. By this, we mean mechanisms where each ac...
In this paper, we propose several deadlock-free protocols for implementing the generalized alternative construct, where a process non-deterministically chooses between sending or ...
