In this paper, we will present a novel framework of utilizing periocular region for age
invariant face recognition. To obtain age invariant features, we first perform preprocessing …

Wireless access networks are often characterized by the interaction of different end users,
communication technologies, and network operators. This paper analyzes the dynamics …

In a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN), the Access Point (AP) selection of a client heavily
influences the performance of its own and others. Through theoretical analysis, we reveal …

Heterogeneous wireless access technologies will coexist in next generation wireless
networks. These technologies form integrated networks, and these networks support …

The proliferation of wireless access technologies offers users the possibility of choosing
among multiple available wireless access networks to connect to. This paper focuses on …

This paper addresses the problem of network selection, which arises when wireless mobile
users can choose among multiple available wireless access networks to connect to. In …

Femtocells are emerging as a key technology to improve coverage and network capacity in
indoor environments. When femtocells use different frequency bands than macrocells (ie …

Wireless stations (WSs) in an IEEE 802.11 access network compete with each other for
collective bandwidth offered by access points (APs). The competition involves selecting an …

As the first step of the communication procedure in 802.11, an unwise selection of the
access point (AP) hurts one client's throughput. This performance downgrade is usually hard …

Heterogeneous wireless network (HWN) is an overlay structure of different wireless
networks (WN). The WNs may differ in terms of coverage, capacity, underlying technology …
