We study the performance of reliable and unreliable allnode broadcast over ad-hoc networks that use contentionbased channel access. To obtain analytical results while preserving h...
Sensor networks are a major new area of research. Some sensor applications, such as video surveillance, will need to be tethered for reasons of bandwidth and power requirements. T...
In opportunistic forwarding, a node randomly relays packets to one of its neighbors based on local information, without the knowledge of global topology. Each intermediate node co...
Understanding mobility characteristics is important for the design and analysis of routing schemes for mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). This is especially true for mobile opportun...
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) pose challenges not present in classical distributed systems: resource limitations, high failure rates, and ad hoc deployment. The lossy nature of w...
