Last Encounter Routing (LER) algorithms for mobile ad hoc networks rely only on encounter histories at every node to route packets, and therefore do not need control traffic to track topology changes due to node mobility. LER exploits the fact that past in ...
In mobile ad-hoc networks, nodes act both as terminals and information relays, and participate in a common routing protocol, such as Dynamic Source Routing (DSR). The network is vulnerable to routing misbehavior, due to faulty or malicious nodes. Misbehavi ...
The article analyzes the influence of the IP access interface on the packet loss probability and delay times in the optical packet switched network. The network and node model have been proposed, and the assembler and hold features have been included in th ...

Erasure resilient FEC codes in off-line packetized streaming rely on time diversity. This requires unrestricted buffering time at the receiver. In real-time streaming the playback buffering time must be very short. Path diversity is an orthogonal strategy. ...
In this paper, we propose to apply Contention-Based Forwarding (CBF) to Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs). CBF is a greedy position-based forwarding algorithm that does not require proactive transmission of beacon messages. CBF performance is analyzed usi ...
Although many energy efficient/conserving routing protocols have been proposed for wireless sensor networks, the concentration of data traffic towards a small number of base stations remains a major threat to the network lifetime. The main reason is that t ...
We have integrated an individual nanostructured permalloy ring on a Hall sensor and studied the switching processes in a temperature regime between 4.2 and 90 K in in-plane magnetic fields. The nanoring has an outer diameter of 550 nm. In the ring with a s ...
In this paper we present Scalable Position-Based Multicast (SPBM), a multicast routing protocol for ad-hoc networks. SPBM uses the geographic position of nodes to provide a highly scalable group membership scheme and to forward data packets with a very low ...
We consider a wireless sensor network, where nodes switch between an active (on) and a sleeping (off) mode, to save energy. Their switching on/off schedules are completely non-coordinated. Their positions are distributed according to a Poisson process, and ...
Understanding of polarization reversal mechanisms in ferroelectric films is essential for evaluation and prediction of the properties of ferroelectric devices including nonvolatile memories. The widely accepted approach based on the domain wall motion kine ...
