    • Decomposing Broadcast Algorithms Using Abstract MAC Layers 

      Khabbazian, Majid; Kowalski, Dariusz; Kuhn, Fabian; Lynch, Nancy (2011-02-23)
      In much of the theoretical literature on global broadcast algorithms for wireless networks, issues of message dissemination are considered together with issues of contention management. This combination leads to complicated ...
    • Neighbor discovery in mobile ad hoc networks using an abstract MAC layer 

      Viqar, Saira; Welch, Jennifer L.; Cornejo Collado, Alex; Lynch, Nancy Ann (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2010-01)
      We explore the problem of neighbor discovery in a mobile ad hoc network environment. We describe a protocol for learning about neighboring nodes in such an environment. The protocol is used for establishing and tearing ...
    • Simulating fixed virtual nodes for adapting wireline protocols to MANET 

      Wu, Jiang; Griffeth, Nancy; Droms, Ralph; Lynch, Nancy Ann; Newport, Calvin Charles (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2009-08)
      The virtual node layer (VNLayer) is a programming abstraction for mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). It defines simple virtual servers at fixed locations in a network, addressing a central problem for MANETs, which is the ...
