  • The Abstract MAC Layer 

    Unknown author (2009-05-11)
    A diversity of possible communication assumptions complicates the study of algorithms and lower bounds for radio networks. We address this problem by defining an Abstract MAC Layer. This service provides reliable local ...

  • Leader Election Using Loneliness Detection 

    Unknown author (2011-10-12)
    We consider the problem of leader election (LE) in single-hop radio networks with synchronized time slots for transmitting and receiving messages. We assume that the actual number n of processes is unknown, while the size ...

  • Online Learning of Non-stationary Sequences 

    Unknown author (2005-11-17)
    We consider an online learning scenario in which the learner can make predictions on the basis of a fixed set of experts. We derive upper and lower relative loss bounds for a class of universal learning algorithms involving ...

  • PPR: Partial Packet Recovery for Wireless Networks 

    Unknown author (2007-02-02)
    Bit errors occur over wireless channels when the signal isn't strongenough to overcome the effects of interference and noise. Currentwireless protocols may use forward error correction (FEC) to correct forsome (small) ...

  • A Reinforcement-Learning Approach to Power Management 

    Unknown author (2002-05-01)
    We describe an adaptive, mid-level approach to the wireless device power management problem. Our approach is based on reinforcement learning, a machine learning framework for autonomous agents. We describe how our ...
