Local area wireless networks are becoming commonplace in our everyday lives. It would be beneficial to establish such wireless networks in an ad-hoc manner so that they are infras...
Metacomputing infrastructures couple multiple clusters (or MPPs) via wide-area networks. A major problem in programming parallel applications for such platforms is their hierarchi...
The development of Wireless Body Area Networks (WBANs) for wireless sensing and monitoring of a person’s vital functions, is an enabler in providing better personal health care w...
Wireless wide-area networks (WWANs) are characterized by very low and variable bandwidths, very high and variable delays, significant non-congestion related losses, asymmetric upl...
We present a specification for a new, localized group membership service that maintains the membership status of adjacent nodes – called neighbors – in a mobile distributed s...
