This book presents an in-depth study on the recent advances in Wireless Sensor Networks
(WSNs). The authors describe the existing WSN applications and discuss the research …

Routing in communication networks involves the indirection from a persistent name (or ID) to
a locator and delivering packets based upon the locator. In a large-scale, highly dynamic …

Traffic measurement provides critical real-world data for service providers and network
administrators to perform capacity planning, accounting and billing, anomaly detection, and …

Location information is crucial for most applications and protocol designs in high-speed
vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANETs). In traditional approaches, this is obtained by object …
