—Connected dominating set (CDS) has been proposed as virtual backbone or spine of wireless ad hoc networks. Three distributed approximation algorithms have been proposed in the l...
Abstract— We consider stochastic guarantees for networks with aggregate scheduling, in particular, Expedited Forwarding (EF). Our approach on the assumption that a node can be ab...
—Modern Personal Digital Assistant (PDA) architectures often utilize a wholesale data transfer protocol known as “slow sync” for synchronizing PDAs with Personal Computers (P...

—In this paper, we present three algorithms that provide performance guarantees for scheduling switches, such as optical switches, with configuration overhead. Each algorithm emu...
—Power-saving is a critical issue for almost all kinds of portable devices. In this paper, we consider the design of power-saving protocols for mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) th...
Abstract— Continuing growth in optical link speeds places increasing demands on the performance of Internet routers, while deployment of embedded and distributed network services...

—We consider scheduling policies for maxmin fair allocation of bandwidth in wireless adhoc networks. We formalize the maxmin fair objective under wireless scheduling constraints....
Abstract— Network calculus is known to apply in general only to feedforward routing networks, i.e., networks where routes do not create cycles of interdependent packet flows. In...

Abstract— In this paper, we address the problem of providing traffic quality of service and energy efficiency in ad hoc wireless networks. We consider a network that is shared ...
— Directional antennas can be useful in significantly increasing node and network lifetime in wireless ad hoc networks. In order to utilize directional antennas, an algorithm is ...
