— Wireless mesh network is designed as an economical solution for last-mile broadband Internet access. In this paper, we study bandwidth allocation in multi-channel multihop wire...
—This paper studies the performance of contention based medium access control (MAC) protocols. In particular, a simple and accurate technique for estimating the throughput of the...
Abstract— Flooding based strategies are conventionally employed to perform querying and broadcasting in sensor networks. These schemes have low hop-delays of Θ( 1 M(n) ) to reac...

— Designing a transport network requires finding the most cost-effective combination of electronic and optical switching to support the given demands. This task is not trivial b...
—In 3G data networks, network operators would like to balance system throughput while serving users in a fair manner. This is achieved using the notion of proportional fairness. ...
— Wireless local area networks (WLANs) are emerging as a popular technology for access to the Internet and enterprise networks. In the long term, the success of WLANs depends on ...
