Energy and Spatial Reuse Efficient Network Wide Real-Time Data Broadcasting in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

Overview This paper presents NB-TRACE, which is an energy-efficient network-wide voice broadcasting architecture for mobile ad hoc networks. In the NB-TRACE architecture, the network is organized into overlapping clusters through a distributed algorithm, where the clusterheads create a non-connected dominating set. Channel access is regulated through a distributed TDMA scheme maintained by the clusterheads. The first group of packets of a broadcast session is broadcasted through flooding, where each data rebroadcast is preceded by an acknowledgement to the upstream node. Nodes that do not get an acknowledgement for a predetermined time, except the clusterheads, cease to rebroadcast, which prunes the redundant retransmissions.

Peter Cochrane's Uncommon Sense: Circuit or packet, clean or dirty?

For non-real time applications such as email and delayed voice and video we can use packet switching where the digital information is broken up into small packets and directed one at a time, across the planet, using any available routing at the...

SIP paves the way for seamless collaboration

And SIP allows P2T messages to be sent to multiple recipients simply by grouping them together in a workgroup, so it can be used as a broadcast tool. Version 2.0 of Openscape lets Pollard broadcast his presence, in a similar way to an IM client...

Niklas Zennström: Telecoms troublemaker

This focus on the user apparently overshadows any desire to play along with the rest of the industry, as Skype is not compatible with Session Internet Protocol (SIP), which is becoming the standard among VoIP players.

VoIP threats to watch out for

Examples of hacks for SIP include registration hijacking, which allows a hacker to intercept incoming calls and reroute them; message tampering, which allows a hacker to modify data packets travelling between SIP addresses; and session tear-down...

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.
