—Sensor network MAC protocols usually employ periodic sleep and wakeup, achieving low duty-cycle to save energy and to increase the lifetime of battery-powered sensor devices. Ho...
Enterprise storage demands have overwhelmed traditional storage mechanisms and have led to the development of Storage Area Networks (SANs). This has resulted in the design of SCSI...
Replication on geographically distributed, unreliable, P2P interconnecting nodes can offer high data availability and low network latency for replica access. The challenge is how ...
—Conventional 802.11 medium access control (MAC) characteristics. In particular, all of these designs adopted a protocols have been designed separately from the characteristics s...
We consider wireless LANs such as IEEE 802.11 operating in the unlicensed radio spectrum. While their nominal bit rates have increased considerably, the MAC layer remains practica...
