New portable consumer embedded devices must execute multimedia and wireless network applications that demand extensive memory footprint. Moreover, they must heavily rely on Dynamic Memory (DM) due to the unpredictability of the input data (e.g. 3D streams ...
Iterative Adaptation is a novel approach to adaptation for resource-limited mobile and wireless environments that supports powerful application-specific adaptations without requiring modifications to the application's source code. Common productivity appli ...
We give a lower bound of Ω(n) rounds for broadcasting in a mobile ad hoc network, where n is the number of nodes in the network. A round is the time taken by a node to successfully transmit a message to all its neighbors. It has been shown by Brus ...
Multi-hop ad-hoc networks consist of nodes which cooperate by forwarding packets for each other to allow communication beyond the power range of each node. In pure ad-hoc networks, no additional infrastructure is required to allow the nodes to communicate. ...
CSMA/CA protocols rely on the random deferment of packet transmissions. Like most other protocols, CSMA/CA was designed with the assumption that the nodes would play by the rules. This is important, since the nodes themselves control their random deferment ...
The automatic configuration of Access Points (APs) is a new subject, since the Wi-Fi technology, which underlies hotspots by a wireless local area network, appears on the world market in 2001. The first market relevance has been in 2002. APs channel assign ...
We consider the question of what performance metric to maximize when designing ad hoc wireless network protocols such as routing or MAC. We focus on maximizing rates under battery-lifetime and power constraints. Commonly used metrics are total capacity (in ...
In this paper, we propose resource allocation strategies for a class of wireless networks with a clustering protocol. The nodes are assumed stationary and establish connections with the master node according to a priority scheme that relates to their dista ...

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 ...
