Extending Paxos/LastVoting with an Adequate Communication Layer for Wireless Ad Hoc Networks

André Schiper, Fatemeh Borran

Most papers addressing consensus in wireless ad hoc networks adopt system models similar to those developed for wired networks. These models are focused towards node failures while ignoring link failures, and thus are poorly suited for wireless ad hoc netw ...

Border effects, fairness, and phase transition in large wireless networks

Patrick Thiran, Olivier Dousse, Mathilde Durvy

We characterize the fairness of decentralized medium access control protocols based on CSMA/CA, such as IEEE 802.11, in large multi-hop wireless networks. In particular, we show that the widely observed unfairness of the protocol in small network topologie ...

Consensus in Wireless Ad hoc Networks

André Schiper, Fatemeh Borran

Solving consensus in wireless ad hoc networks has started to be addressed in several papers. Most of these papers adopt system models similar to those developed for wired networks. These models are focused towards node failures while ignoring link failures ...

Security and Cooperation in Wireless Networks

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Levente Buttyan

According to most technology pundits, progress in wireless and sensor networks will lead us into a world of ubiquitous computing, in which myriads of tiny, untethered sensors and actuators will communicate with each other. Information technology will thus ...

Distributed Communication in Swarms of Autonomous Underwater Vehicles

Felix Stephan Schill

Effective communication mechanisms are a key requirement for schools of submersible robots and their meaningful deployment. Large schools of identical submersibles require a fully distributed communication system which scales well and optimises for ”many-t ...

On broadcast and agreement in mobile ad hoc networks

Yoav Sasson

This thesis studies communication and agreement protocols in wireless ad hoc networks from both theoretical and practical perspectives. The last decade has given rise to the rapid growth of wireless telecommunications such as cellular mobile phone networks ...

A Network Coding Approach to Energy Efficient Broadcasting: from Theory to Practice

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Christina Fragouli, Jörg Widmer

We show that network coding allows to realize energy savings in a wireless ad-hoc network, when each node of the network is a source that wants to transmit information to all other nodes. Energy efficiency directly affects battery life and thus is a critic ...

Secure Positioning in Wireless Networks

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Srdan Capkun

So far, the problem of positioning in wireless networks has been studied mainly in a nonadversarial setting. In this paper, we analyze the resistance of positioning techniques to position and distance spoofing attacks. We propose a mechanism for secure pos ...
