In the last decade, the advancement of the Internet of Things (IoT) has caused unlicensed radio spectrum, especially the 2.4 GHz ISM band, to be immensely crowded with smart wireless devices that are used in a wide range of application…
The key research question we are addressing in this paper, is how local distance information can be integrated into the global structure determination, in the form of network graphs realization for IoT networks. IoT networks will be…
The Internet of Things (IoT) is becoming ubiquitous in our daily life. IoT networks that are made up of devices low power, low memory, and low computing capability appears in many applications such as healthcare, home, agriculture. IPv6…
Recently, graph (network) data is an emerging research area in artificial intelligence, machine learning and statistics. In this work, we are interested in whether node's labels (people's responses) are affected by their neighbor's features…
Our work is motivated by the need for impromptu (or "as-you-go") deployment of relay nodes (for establishing a packet communication path with a control centre) by fire-men/commandos while operating in an unknown environment. We consider a…
This paper presents a comparison of cluster-based position and non position-based routing protocols for mobile wireless sensor networks to outline design considerations of protocols for mobile environments. The selected protocols are…
Location is one of the basic information required for underwater optical wireless sensor networks (UOWSNs) for different purposes such as relating the sensing measurements with precise sensor positions, enabling efficient geographic routing…
ZigBee mesh network is very important research field in computer networks. However, the location of ZigBee coordinator plays a significant role in design and routing performance. In this paper, an extensive study on the factors that…
The significance of the freshness of sensor and control data at the receiver side, often referred to as Age of Information (AoI), is fundamentally constrained by contention for limited network resources. Evidently, network congestion is…
We study the problem of inferring the structure of a communication network based only on network measurements made from a set of hosts situated at the network periphery. Our novel approach called "OCCAM" is based on the principle of occam's…
In opportunistic networks, the use of social metrics (e.g., degree, closeness and betweenness centrality) of human mobility network, has recently been shown to be an effective solution to improve the performance of opportunistic forwarding…
Intelligent streetlight systems divide the streetlight network into multiple sectors, activating only the streetlights in the corresponding sectors when traffic elements pass by, rather than all streetlights, effectively reducing energy…
Human mobility prediction is a core functionality in many location-based services and applications. However, due to the sparsity of mobility data, it is not an easy task to predict future POIs (place-of-interests) that are going to be…
This paper investigates how and with whom IoT devices communicate and how their location affects their communication patterns. Specifically, the endpoints an IoT device communicates with can be defined as a small set of domains. To study…
This paper investigates the location-based relay selection problem, where the source node chooses its relay from a set of spatially deployed decode-and-forward relays. The advantages of location-based relay selection are the elimination of…
Mobile media has undoubtedly become the predominant source of traffic in wireless networks. The result is not only congestion and poor Quality-of-Experience, but also an unprecedented energy drain at both the network and user devices. In…
We consider the problem of routing in a mobile ad-hoc network (MANET) for which the planned mobilities of the nodes are partially known a priori and the nodes travel in groups. This situation arises commonly in military and emergency…
The deployment of robot assistants in large indoor spaces has seen significant growth, with escorting tasks becoming a key application. However, most current escorting robots primarily rely on navigation-focused strategies, assuming that…
In recent decades, the emergence of social networks has enabled internet service providers (e.g., Facebook, Twitter and Uber) to achieve great commercial success. Link prediction is recognized as a common practice to build the topology of…
An increasing number of mobile applications share location-dependent information, from collaborative applications and social networks to location-based games. For such applications, peer-to-peer architectures where mobile devices share…
