Adaptive Probing and Communication in Sensor Networks
Sensor networks consist of multiple low-cost, autonomous, ad-hoc sensors, that periodically probe and react to the environment and communicate with other sensors or devices. A prim...

Consensus with Unknown Participants or Fundamental Self-Organization
Abstract. We consider the problem of bootstrapping self-organized mobile ad hoc networks (MANET), i.e. reliably determining in a distributed and self-organized manner the services ...

Connectivity of Wireless Sensor Networks with Constant Density
We consider a wireless sensor network in which each sensor is able to transmit within a disk of radius one. We show with elementary techniques that there exists a constant c such t...

Weathering the Storm: Managing Redundancy and Security in Ad Hoc Networks
Many ad hoc routing algorithms rely on broadcast flooding for location discovery or more generally for secure routing applications, particularly when dealing with Byzantine threat...

A Rate-Adaptive MAC Protocol for Low-Power Ultra-Wide Band Ad-Hoc Networks
Recent theoretical results show that it is optimal to allow interfering sources to transmit simultaneously as long as they are outside a well-defined exclusion region around a de...

Range-Free Ranking in Sensors Networks and Its Applications to Localization
We address the question of finding sensors’ coordinates, or at least an approximation of them, when the sensors’ abilities are very weak. In a d dimensional space, we define ...

Approximating the Minimum Number of Maximum Power Users in Ad Hoc Networks
Topology control is the problem of assigning transmission power values to the nodes of an ad hoc network so that the induced graph satisfies some specified property. The most fun...

Securing quality-of-service route discovery in on-demand routing for ad hoc networks
An ad hoc network is a collection of computers (nodes) that cooperate to forward packets for each other over a multihop wireless network. Users of such networks may wish to use de...

A routing protocol for power constrained networks with asymmetric links
In many instances, an ad hoc network consists of nodes with different hardware and software capabilities as well as power limitations. This is the case of ad hoc grids where devi...
