Nowadays, wireless sensor network (WSN) users are demanding more and more in terms of
choice and diversity of applications. Hence, as the diversity of applications is increasing, it is …

A wireless sensor network with multimedia capabilities typically consists of data sensor
nodes, which sense, for instance, sound or motion, and video sensor nodes, which capture …

Studies of ad hoc wireless networks are a relatively new field gaining more popularity for
various new applications. In these networks, the Medium Access Control (MAC) protocols …

The IEEE 802.11 distributed coordination function (DCF) enables fast installation with
minimal management and maintenance costs, and is a very robust protocol for the best effort …

This book provides a comprehensive yet easy coverage of ad hoc and sensor networks and
fills the gap of existing literature in this growing field. It emphasizes that there is a major …

This paper describes an adaptive service differentiation scheme for QoS enhancement in
IEEE 802.11 wireless ad-hoc networks. Our approach, called adaptive enhanced distributed …

We propose SWAN, a stateless network model which uses distributed control algorithms to
deliver service differentiation in mobile wireless ad hoc networks in a simple, scalable and …

Abstract Quality‐of‐service (QoS) is a key problem of today's IP networks. Many frameworks
(IntServ, DiffServ, MPLS etc.) have been proposed to provide service differentiation in the …

Wireless mobile networks and devices are becoming increasingly popular as they provide
users access to information and communication anytime and anywhere. Conventional …
