A cross-layered slotted ALOHA protocol is proposed and analyzed for distributed estimation in sensor networks. Suppose that the sensors in the network record local measurements of ...
The intent of peer data management systems (PDMS) is to share as much data as possible. However, in many applications leveraging sensitive data, users demand adequate mechanisms to...
It has been shown in the literature that many MAC protocols for wireless networks have a considerable control overhead, which limits their achievable throughput and delay performan...
