—In this paper, towards improving spatial reuse in a cellular network, we consider augmenting it with wireless ad hoc connectivity. The coverage area of each base-station is redu...

— In this paper, we concentrate on opportunistic scheduling for multicast information. We pose the problem as a multicast throughput optimization problem. As a solution we presen...
—The design of computer and communication systems has been based, for decades, on the fundamental assumption that the objective of all users is to improve their own performance. ...
—In multi-rate wireless LANs, throughput-based fair bandwidth allocation can lead to drastically reduced aggregate throughput. To balance aggregate throughput while serving users...
Abstract—This paper investigates the speed limit of information propagation in large wireless networks, which provides fundamental understanding of the fastest information transp...
—Sleep-wake scheduling is an effective mechanism to prolong the lifetime of energy-constrained wireless sensor networks. However, it incurs an additional delay for packet deliver...

—It is important in communication networks to use routes that are as short as possible (i.e have low stretch) while keeping routing tables small. Recent advances in compact routi...
—We study the problem of data-driven routing and navigation in a distributed sensor network over a continuous scalar field. Specifically, we address the problem of searching fo...

Abstract—In road networks, sensors are deployed sparsely (hundreds of meters apart) to save costs. This makes the existing localization solutions based on the ranging be ineffect...
