When applied in high-churn Internet environments, P2P systems face a dilemma: although most participants are too unstable, a P2P system requires sufficient stable peers to provide satisfactory core services. Thus, determining how to leverage unstable nodes seems to be the only choice. Our primary idea is to group unstable nodes together in order to form […]

Maximizing the Number of Broadcast Operations in Random Geometric Ad Hoc Wireless Networks
We consider static ad hoc wireless networks whose nodes, equipped with the same initial battery charge, may dynamically change their transmission range. When a node v transmits with range r(v), its battery charge is decreased by β r(v)2, where β > 0 is a fixed constant. The goal is to provide a range assignment schedule […]
