Variable environments in ad hoc networks require a joint control of physical (PHY) and medium access control (MAC) layers resources in order to optimize performance. In this paper,...
o address the need for canonical abstraction, we've adopted software engineering's concept of signatures--a technique for defining software patterns or invariant procedur...
As technical systems keep growing more complex and sophisticated, designing software for the safety-critical coordination between their components becomes increasingly difficult....
