A Novel Basis for Logic Rewriting

Giovanni De Micheli, Mathias Soeken, Pierre-Emmanuel Julien Marc Gaillardon, Luca Gaetano Amarù, Winston Jason Haaswijk

Given a set of logic primitives and a Boolean function, exact synthesis finds the optimum representation (e.g., depth or size) of the function in terms of the primitives. Due to its high computational complexity, the use of exact synthesis is limite ...

On the Asymptotic Validity of the Decoupling Assumption for Analyzing 802.11 MAC Protocol

Jean-Yves Le Boudec

Performance evaluation of the 802.11 MAC protocol is classically based on the decoupling assumption, which hypothesizes that the backoff processes at different nodes are independent. This decoupling assumption results from mean field convergence and is gen ...

On the Validity of the Fixed Point Equation and Decoupling Assumption for Analyzing the 802.11 MAC Protocol

Jean-Yves Le Boudec

Performance evaluation of the 802.11 MAC protocol is classically based on the decoupling assumption, which hypothesizes that the backoff processes at different nodes are independent. A necessary condition for the validity of this approach is the existence ...

On uncoordinated wireless ad-hoc networks : data dissemination over WIFI and cross-layer optimization for ultra wide band impulse radio

Alaeddine El Fawal

Emerging pervasive wireless networks, pocket switched networks, Internet of things, vehicular networks and even sensor networks present very challenging communication circumstances. They might involve up to several hundreds of wireless devices with mobilit ...

Interference management in impulse-radio ultra-wide band networks

Ruben Merz

We consider networks of impulse-radio ultra-wide band (IR-UWB) devices. We are interested in the architecture, design, and performance evaluation of these networks in a low data-rate, self-organized, and multi-hop setting. IR-UWB is a potential physical la ...

Understanding the Gap between the IEEE 802.11 Protocol Performance and the Theoretical Limits

Patrick Thiran, Mathilde Durvy

The ability of the IEEE 802.11 Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol to perform well in multi-hop ad hoc networks has been recently questioned. We observe levels of spatial reuse that are 30% to 50% away from the theoretical limit. The goal of this paper is ...

DOMINO: Detecting MAC layer greedy behavior in IEEE 802.11 hotspots

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Alaeddine El Fawal, Imad Aad, Maxime Raya

IEEE 802.11 works properly only if the stations respect the MAC protocol. We show in this paper that a greedy user can substantially increase his share of bandwidth, at the expense of the other users, by slightly modifying the driver of his network adapter ...

Packet Combining in Sensor Networks

Martin Vetterli, Henri Julien Dubois-Ferrière

This paper presents the Simple Packet Combining (SPaC) error-correction scheme for wireless sensor networks. Nodes buffer corrupt packets, and when two or more corrupt versions of a packet have been received, a packet combining procedure attempts to recove ...
