We present heterogenous quorum-based asynchronous wake-up scheduling schemes for
wireless sensor networks. The schemes can ensure that two nodes that adopt different …

In energy‐constrained networks, designing an energy‐efficient MAC protocol is crucial since
the MAC protocol controls the access of the nodes to the shared wireless medium. Indeed …

In this paper, we focus on power management for Delay/Disruption Tolerant Network (DTN),
and propose two asynchronous clock-based sleep scheduling protocols that are distributed …

This paper reviews quorum systems (QS) from the perspective of cognitive radio networks.
Quorum systems were originally developed for and widely used in the scope of operating …

Due to the heterogenous power-saving requirement in wireless sensor networks, we
propose the Cyclic Quorum System Pair (CQS-Pair) which can guarantee that two …

Quorum-based algorithms are widely used for solving several problems in mobile ad hoc
networks (MANET) and wireless sensor networks (WSN). Several quorum-based protocols …

In order to save energy consumption in idle states, low duty-cycled operation is widely used
in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), where each node periodically switches between …

The Quorum-based Power Saving (QPS) protocols have been proposed to increase the
energy efficiency of wireless communication. However, it remains challenging to apply …

Recently, considerable research efforts have been devoted to Delay/disruption Tolerant
Network (DTN) in order to enable communications between disconnected network entities …

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs)[4] have recently received increased attention for a broad
array of applications such as surveillance [5], environment monitoring [6], medical …
