The increasing demand for World Wide Web (WWW) services has made document caching
a necessity to decrease download times and reduce Internet traffic. To make effective use of …

Topology control has been well studied in wireless ad hoc networks. However, only a few
topology control methods (eg [1]) take into account the low interference as a goal of the …

This paper investigates the problem of energy-efficient transmission of data packets in a
wireless network by jointly adapting to backlog and channel condition. Specifically, we …

We consider the target-rate power management problem for wireless networks; and we
propose two simple, distributed power management schemes that regulate power in a …

The last decade has seen a tremendous growth in the usage of the World Wide Web. The
Web has grown so fast that it seems to be becoming an unusable and slow behemoth. Web …

OS resource management policies traditionally employ buffering to" smooth out" fluctuations
in resource demand. By minimizing the length of idle periods and the level of contention …

The debut of small, inexpensive, yet powerful portable computers has coincided with the
exponential growth of the Internet, making it possible to access computing resources and …

In mobile computing environments, vital resources like battery power and wireless channel
bandwidth impose significant challenges in ubiquitous information access. In this paper, we …

Most of the prefetch techniques used in the current cache management schemes do not
consider power constraints of the mobile clients and other factors such as the size of the …

In situations where establishing a network infrastructure is impossible, Ad-hoc networks are
considered particularly important. Most of the previous research in Ad-hoc networks …
