-- In a WAN established infrastructure, one of the main problems ATM network planners and users face, when greater than T1/E1 bandwidth is required, is the high cost associated to ...
— Many distributed multiple access (MAC) protocols use an exponential backoff mechanism. In that mechanism, a node picks a random backoff time uniformly in an interval that doubl...
—We study throughput-optimal scheduling/routing over mobile ad-hoc networks with time-varying (fading) channels. Traditional back-pressure algorithms (based on the work by Tassiu...
— We propose a physical-datalink cross-layer resource allocation scheme over wireless relay networks for quality-ofservice (QoS) guarantees. By integrating information theory wit...
- In this paper, we study and quantify the impact of the most widely used security protocols, such as 802.1x, EAP, IPSEC, SSL and RADIUS, in wireless local area networks (WLANs). B...
