– Peer-to-peer is a popular distributed system. Mobile ad hoc networks and peer-to-peer file sharing systems both lack fixed infrastructure support and hold no a-priori knowledge...
In this paper, we present a real-time communication protocol for sensor networks, called SPEED. The protocol provides three types of real-time communication services, namely, real...
