An Adaptive Channel Access Method for Dynamic Super Dense Wireless Sensor Networks
Super dense and distributed wireless sensor networks have become very popular with the development of small cell technology, Internet of Things (IoT), Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communications, Vehicular-to-Vehicular (V2V) communications and public safety ...

Online Contention Resolution Schemes
We introduce a new rounding technique designed for online optimization problems, which is related to contention resolution schemes, a technique initially introduced in the context of submodular function maximization. Our rounding technique, which we call

On Maximum Contention-Free Interleavers and Permutation Polynomials over Integer Rings [PDF]
An interleaver is a critical component for the channel coding performance of turbo codes. Algebraic constructions are of particular interest because they admit analytical designs and simple, practical hardware implementation. Contention-free interleavers

A Scalable Hybrid MAC Protocol for Massive M2M Networks
In Machine to Machine (M2M) networks, a robust Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol is crucial to enable numerous machine-type devices to concurrently access the channel.

Holistic assessment of call centre performance
In modern call centres 60–70% of the operational costs come in the form of the human agents who take the calls. Ensuring that the call centre operates at lowest cost and maximum efficiency involves a trade‐off of the cost of agents against lost revenue ...

OrMAC: A Hybrid MAC Protocol Using Orthogonal Codes for Channel Access in M2M Networks
This paper proposes a hybrid medium access protocol named orthogonal coded medium access control (OrMAC), which extends the principle of distributed queuing collision avoidance protocol (DQCA) of wireless local area network (WLAN) to delay-sensitive ...

An analytical model of contention in wireless sensor networks using tree routing
Presently, the focus of current research on Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) is predominantly on contention at the MAC layer, overlooking the traffic characteristics of upper-layer traffic, especially the interaction with the routing traffic.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

A Game-Theoretic Framework for Medium Access Control [PDF]
In this paper, we generalize the random access game model, and show that it provides a general game-theoretic framework for designing contention based medium access control.
