: A multi-rate capable IEEE 802.11a/b/g node can utilize different link-layer transmission rates. Interestingly, multi-rate capability is defined by IEEE 802.11 standards only for...
Consider a network in which a collection of source nodes maintain and periodically update data objects for a collection of sink nodes, each of which periodically accesses the data...
