— Many distributed multiple access (MAC) protocols use an exponential backoff mechanism. In that mechanism, a node picks a random backoff time uniformly in an interval that doubl...
Research into large-scale distributed systems often relies on the use of simulation frameworks in order to bypass the disadvantages of performing experiments on real testbeds. SimG...
− As one special case of the Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs), Vehicular Ad hoc Network (VANET) is featured for its extremely high mobility and constantly changing topology. As a ...
Abstract—This paper presents a new upper bound on the endto-end signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of channel-assisted amplifyand-forward (AF) multi-hop relay networks. The harmonic mea...
