Prefetching has been shown to be an effective technique for reducing resource cost and delay in heterogeneous wireless networks. However, in modern wireless local area networks, th...
In this paper, we propose a novel MAC protocol, called Quality-ofservice Guarantee Multiple Access (QGMA), in wireless local area networks to support the quality of service requir...
We consider teams of mobile autonomous robot systems that coordinate their work via communication over a wireless local area network. In such a scenario, timely delivery and group...
Abstract—In this paper we explore the incentive and architectural issues that arise in Consortia of Peer-to-Peer Wireless Local Area Networks. A P2P WLAN Consortium (PWC) is a co...

Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN) are being deployed at a rapid pace and in different environments. As a result, the demand for supporting a diverse range of applications over w...
— Recent years have seen tremendous growth in the deployment of Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs). An important design issue in such networks is that of distributed scheduling...
One motivation of mobile Next-Generation Networks (NGN) is the ubiquitous computing abilities, which provide automatic handovers for any moving computing devices in a globally net...
