Packet Switching In Radio Channels: Part III -- Polling and . . .

by Fouad A. Tobagi, Leonard Kleinrock - IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON COMMUNICATIONS , 1976
"... Here we continue the analytic study of packet switching in radio channels which we reported upon in our two previous papers [ 11, [2]. Again we consider a population of terminals communicating with a central station over a packet-switched radio channel. The allocation of bandwidth among the contend ..."

, (as expected) random access is superior to both futed assignment and polling. We also introduce and analyze a dynamic reservation technique which we call split-channel reservation multiple access (SRMA) which is interesting in that it is both simple and efficient over a large range of system

Lattice-Based Access Control Models

by Ravi S. Sandhu , 1993
"... The objective of this article is to give a tutorial on lattice-based access control models for computer security. The paper begins with a review of Denning's axioms for information flow policies, which provide a theoretical foundation for these models. The structure of security labels in the ..."

for a single channel wireless LAN being developed at Xerox Corporation's Palo Alto Research Center. We start with the MACA media access protocol rst proposed by Karn [9] and later refined by Biba [3] which uses an RTS-CTS-DATA packet exchange and binary exponential backo. Using packet

Versatile Low Power Media Access for Wireless Sensor Networks

by Joseph Polastre, Jason Hill, David Culler , 2004
"... We propose B-MAC, a carrier sense media access protocol for wireless sensor networks that provides a flexible interface to obtain ultra low power operation, effective collision avoidance, and high channel utilization. To achieve low power operation, B-MAC employs an adaptive preamble sampling scheme ..."

Performance Analysis of the IEEE 802.11 Distributed Coordination Function

by Giuseppe Bianchi , 2000
"... Recently, the IEEE has standardized the 802.11 protocol for Wireless Local Area Networks. The primary medium access control (MAC) technique of 802.11 is called distributed coordination function (DCF). DCF is a carrier sense multiple access with collision avoidance (CSMA/CA) scheme with binary slott ..."

PAMAS -- Power Aware Multi-Access protocol with Signalling for Ad Hoc Networks

by Suresh Singh, C.S. Raghavendra , 1998
"... In this paper we develop a new multiaccess protocol for ad hoc radio networks. The protocol is based on the original MACA protocol with the adition of a separate signalling channel. The unique feature of our protocol is that it conserves battery power at nodes by intelligently powering off nodes t ..."
