Wireless networking is expected to sustain the direct interaction between personal users’ devices, and provide connectivity on large-scale resource-constrained devices. However, conventional protocols fail in large scale mobile wireless environments, due node mobility, dynamic topologies, intermittent connectivity. Information-Centric Networking (ICN) has been considered most promising candidat...

D istributed embedded systems such as wireless sensor and actuator networks require new programming models and software tools to support the rapid design and prototyping of sensing and control applications. Unlike centralized platforms and web-based distributed systems, these distributed sensor-actuator network (DSAN) systems are characterized by a massive number of potentially failing nodes, l...

The 5G (fifth Generation) wireless technology is still under investigation and needs more research stages. Researches are currently exploring different architectures to imply main concepts of this new technology. SDN has been proposed as a promising technique for these networks, which will be a key component in the design of 5G wireless networks. The 5G is going to be based on user-centric conc...

Abstract Human centric computing is a technique that gaining more attention nowadays and integrates innovative processing methods for analyzing extensive data collection. intelligent systems focus on handling the interactions between customers, companies, communities of to represent social institutional concepts effectively. However, this interaction companies customers will lead various privac...

OF THE THESIS Pricing For Enabling Forwarding in Wireless Ad Hoc Networks by Omer Ileri Thesis Director: Professor Narayan Mandayam In wireless ad hoc networks, it is often assumed that all nodes cooperate to relay packets for each other. Although spontaneous forwarding is a plausible model for military or mission based networks, it may not be realistic for commercial networks and pervasive com...
