The third generation of mobile networks aims to offer services diversified to users, while guaranteeing acceptable QoS. This results in the setting up of strategies of increasingl...
The IEEE 802.11e technology is receiving much interest due to the promising enhancements it will offer to wireless local area networks in terms of QoS support. Until now, research...

: In this paper, we discuss a novel reservation-based, asynchronous MAC protocol called `Multi-rate Multi-hop MAC Protocol' (MMMP) for multi-hop ad hoc networks that provides ...
We evaluate selected research proposals towards the efficient real-time QoS management over wireless links. We mainly focus on real-time performance of link- and transport-level m...
We propose the cross-layer based opportunistic multi-channel medium access control (MAC) protocols, which integrate the spectrum sensing at physical (PHY) layer with the packet sch...
