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 ...
Improving network lifetime is an important issue involved in every aspect of the design and deployment of wireless sensor networks. There is a recent research trend of studying the application of a mobile sink to transport (rather than let the sensor nodes ...
In this paper, we address the problem of dynamic protocol update (DPU) that requires global coordination of local code replacements. We propose a novel approach to DPU. The key idea is the use of synchronization facilities of the services that get updated. ...
We address the problem of securing the route discovery for Quality-of- Service (QoS)-aware routing in ad hoc networks. We provide a specification of secure route discovery for QoS-aware routing. We propose a reactive secure routing protocol, SRP-QoS, to de ...
This paper describes an event dissemination algorithm that implements a topic-based publish/subscribe abstraction in mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs). Our algorithm relies on (1) the mobility of the processes and (2) the validity period of the events to ens ...
Short Message Service (SMS) has become extremely popular in many countries, and represents a multi-billion dollars market. Yet many consumers consider that the price cellular network operators charge for it is too high. In this paper, we explain that there ...
We introduce autonomous gossiping (A/G), a new genre epidemic algorithm for selective dissemination of information in contrast to previous usage of epidemic algorithms which flood the whole network. A/G is a paradigm which suits well in a mobile ad-hoc net ...
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 ...
Many routing protocols for wireless ad hoc networks proposed in the literature use flooding to discover paths between the source and the destination node. Despite various broadcast optimization techniques, flooding remains expensive in terms of bandwidth and ...
Ultra-Wide Band (UWB) is an emerging wireless physical layer technology that uses a very large bandwidth. We are interested in finding the design objectives of the medium access (MAC, namely, power control and scheduling) and routing protocols of a multi-h ...
