communications and digital electronics, Wireless Sensor Networks have been used in everywhere such as battlefield surveillance, environment supervision and traffic control has become a reality. Wireless Sensor Networks consist of large number of sensor nodes which collect and route data to the external sink with a certain transmission regulation. Due to the limitations of bandwidth memory and computing capability of such nodes the applied routing topology should ensure the minimization of energy consumption

sometimes called simply "the Net," is a worldwide system of computer networks composed of other networks and individual computers in which users at any one computer can, if they have permission, get information from any other computer. The internet makes use of the TCP/IP protocol suite (to be covered later) in order to perform connections and communication. The technical coordinating body of the internet is ICANN. Network Solutions used to be responsible for assigning domain names and IP addresses

Optimal Power Allocation in Multi-Relay MIMO Cooperative Networks: Theory and Algorithms Abstract Cooperative networking is known to have significant potential in increasing network capacity and transmission reliability. Although there have been extensive studies on applying cooperative networking in multi-hop ad hoc networks, most works are limited to the basic three-node relay scheme and single-antenna systems. These two limitations are interconnected and both are due to a limited theoretical

CIS 175 Week 1 Discussion "Topologies" Please respond to the following: Per the text, network topologies are defined both physically and logically. Suppose you had to implement either a full-mesh topology or start topology network on a university campus that has ten (10) buildings. Determine the topology that would you select. Provide two (2) reasons for your choice. Imagine that you work for a small company with one hundred (100) computers that are not on a network. Your boss comes to you for

deals with some of the solutions to these problems. Finally Section 10 concludes this article. Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANET) has become an exciting and important technology in recent years because of the rapid proliferation of wireless devices. A mobile adhoc network consists of mobile nodes that can move freely in an open environment. Communicating nodes in a Mobile Adhoc Network usually seek the help of other intermediate nodes to establish communication channels. In such an environment
