—This paper presents a new receiver-initiated sensor network MAC protocol, called CyMAC, which has the following unique features. It reduces the idle listening time of sensor nod...
In this paper, we propose a novel multicast streaming protocol for overlay networks, called Gossip Based Streaming (GBS). In GBS, streaming contents are not come from a single ups...
Aggregate traffic loads and topology in multi-hop wireless networks may vary slowly, permitting MAC protocols to `learn' how to spatially coordinate and adapt contention patte...
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...
