Recent development of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) has led to the appearance of many application specific communication protocols which must be energy-efficient. Among those pro...
The open-source rsync utility reduces the time and bandwidth required to update a file across a network. Rsync uses an interactive protocol that detects changes in a file and se...
Traditional wireless broadcast protocols rely heavily on the 802.11-based CSMA/CA model, which avoids interference and collision by conservatively scheduling transmissions. While C...
Abstract—To achieve scalability, energy-efficiency, and timeliness, wireless sensor network deployments increasingly employ in-network processing. In this paper, we identify sin...
Abstract—In this paper, we review the most important performance characteristics of the 802.11 DCF wireless networks, point out some false common knowledge, and report on recent ...
