Abstract—The link layer of an optical direct-detection code-division multiple-access (CDMA) packet network is considered. Two different protocols that need pretransmission coordi...
Software Engineering studies run in classroom environments can and have made important contributions to empirical software engineering. Because the goal of such studies is to impr...
