Abstract—We propose a new geometric spanner for wireless ad hoc networks, which can be constructed efficiently in a distributed manner. It integrates the connected dominating se...
Sensor network MAC protocols are typically configured for an intended deployment scenario once and for all at compile time. This approach, however, leads to suboptimal performance...
