In this paper, we address the problem of guaranteeing end-to-end (ETE) delay of packets in a distributed system where the technique of time division multiplex access (TDMA)is adop...
The terms pervasive and ubiquitous computing are used to describe a smart space populated by hundreds of intelligent devices that are embedded in their surroundings. Characteristi...
Wide-area distributed systems like computational grids are emergent infrastructures for high-performance parallel applications. On these systems, communication mechanisms have to ...
—In wireless networks, node cooperation has been exploited as a data relaying mechanism for decades. However, the wireless channel allows for much richer interaction among nodes....
