The CSMA/CA based random channel access mechanisms in Wireless Mesh Networks(WMNs), IEEE 802.11 DCF and EDCA, are inefficient to eliminate effectively hidden terminal and exposed terminal problems in multi-hop scenarios. In this paper, we propose efficient channel assignment and routing protocols for multi-radio multi-channel (MRMC) wireless mesh networks. These set of protocols are based on La...

In recent years a new type of wireless networks named wireless mesh networks has drawn the attention of researchers. In order to increase the capacity of mesh network, nodes are equipped with multiple radios tuned on multiple channels emerging multi radio multi channel wireless mesh networks. Therefore, the main challenge of these networks is how to properly assign the channels to the radios. O...

Channel assignment is one of the most important issues in the multi-radio multi-channel wireless mesh networks. An improper channel assignment may lead to network partition or link failure. In this paper we focus on the channel assignment problem with the original topology preservation for the multi-radio mesh networks, and aim at minimizing the overall network interference. We have formulated ...

Combiner and Stacked Generalization are two very similar meta-learning methods that combine predictions of multiple classiiers to improve accuracy of any single classiier. Both methods form a meta-level classiier from meta-data that are predictions of multiple classiiers on the same data items. The diierence between these two approaches lies in the way meta-data is formed. In this paper, we com...
