Adaptive Two-Tier Energy-Efficient Multicasting in Mobile and Wireless Ad Hoc Networks

Overview This paper studies the problem of energy-efficient multicasting in mobile and wireless ad hoc networks. To deal with node mobility, the paper presents a two-tier multicasting model which consists of mobile nodes and stationary nodes. Mobile nodes achieve multicasting through the closest stationary node at lower tier. Stationary nodes route the messages via a multicast tree at higher tier. The paper finds that the energy-efficiency of the multicast tree at higher tier is only dependent upon the aggregate traffic at the stationary nodes. In other words, both node mobility at lower tier and variance of group membership are mapped as dynamic Multicast Traffic Distribution (MTD) at higher tier.

VoIP primer: How it works - and what the jargon means

The packets that make up the audio stream may take different routes from node to node over the network in question but and are put back into order at the termination point to make up the audio that we recognise as conversation.

Radioactive: Taipei gets meshed up

Because each node relies on those next to it to interoperate, they need to speak the same lingo. Each device will be own its own network router, relaying data to the next node (another 4G) phone. For fixed networks to have any-to-any connectivity...

Storm botnet 'services' for hire?

Stewart has claimed in a blog post that the latest Storm variants now use a 40-byte key to encrypt their peer-to-peer traffic, meaning each node will only be able to communicate with nodes that use the same key.

Live Webcast: Telecoms 2.0 - Where is telecoms heading?

In this webcast, our panel of experts will review where we are with next generation telecoms in the UK, working through the concept of 'Telecoms 2.0': - Realising the potential of Next Generation Networks - why it isn't just about the technology? - What attributes should firms be looking for in their telco partner? - Is the relationship between telco provider and customer changing? - What things need to happen to make next generation services a reality? - You say you want the supplier to change. Do you want to change too? - What is Telecoms 2.0?

Telecom 2.0: Mind over matter

ntl:Telewest Business believes that the role of the telco is evolving. Gone are the days when it was enough to simply focus on circuits and minutes, customers now need a far higher degree of interaction and look for suppliers who will talk business solutions with them.
