Next-generation core networks are expected to achieve service-oriented traffic management
for diversified Quality-of-Service (QoS) provisioning based on software-defined networking …

Achieving reliable underwater acoustic communications is a challenging task due to the time-
varying channels in the underwater acoustic environment. Scalable Video Coding (SVC) …

We focus on sensor networks that are deployed in challenging environments, wherein
sensors do not always have connected paths to a base station, and propose a new data …

Classic vision-based navigation solutions, which are utilized in algorithms such as
Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM), usually fail to work underwater when the …

We aim to preserve a large amount of data generated inside base station-less sensor
networks (BSNs) while considering that sensor nodes are selfish. BSNs refer to emerging …

Image transmission in Underwater Internet of Things (UW IoT) is a challenging problem due
to the characteristic low bandwidth and variable path loss of the underwater acoustic …

Many emerging sensor network applications operate in challenging environments wherein
the base station is unavailable. Data generated from such intermittently connected sensor …

In the past decade, underwater communications have enabled a wide range of applications;
there are, however, novel applications and systems, such as coastal multimedia …

We study how to maximize information freshness in intermittently connected sensor
networks (ICSNs). ICSNs are emerging sensing applications and systems that are deployed …

This chapter elaborates on the concept of sustainable computing and its inception by tracing
its roots back to the generic utility of sustainability. It refers to reconciliation of the sharply …
