In this paper, a novel automatic approach for the concurrent topology and routing optimization that achieves a high quality network layout is proposed. This optimization is based ...
Discrete-event packet-level network simulation is well-known and widely used. Network emulation is a hybrid approach that combines real elements of a deployed networked applicatio...
The need for an efficient service management system in an ad-hoc network is obvious. Mobile nodes – and with them the services they provide – frequently enter and leave the ne...
We propose a distributed on-demand power-management protocol for collecting data in sensor networks. The protocol aims to reduce power consumption while supporting fluctuating dem...
This paper presents ARC (Adaptive Range Control), a communication range control mechanism using directional antennas to be implemented across multiple layers. ARC uses directional...
