Abstract--Wireless networks, especially mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) and cognitive radio networks (CRN), are facing two new challenges beyond traditional random network model: op...
Abstract—Due to its large scale and constrained communication radius, a wireless sensor network mostly relies on multi-hop transmissions to deliver a data packet along a sequence...

Existing deployments of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are often conceived as stand-alone monitoring tools. In this paper, we report instead on a deployment where the WSN is a ke...
The characteristics of ad hoc networks naturally encourage the deployment of distributed services. Although current networks implement group communication methods, they do not sup...
The perceived advantages of distributed systems, such as increased reliability and availability, are o set by the increased complexity of developing such applications. The develop...
