Wireless communication is very fast becoming the most frequently used form of communication. Ad-Hoc networks can be easily set up anywhere without any infrastructure cost and its mobility adds to its advantage. Hence with increase in its demand the quality of the setup comes under scrutiny, hence calling for its development. This paper presents the concept of Cooperative MAC protocols. Cooperat...

This paper studies the application of multi-Agent cooperative technology in fault diagnosis and monitoring system. According to the research of the computer supported cooperative work (CSCW), this paper proposed a model of fault diagnosis and monitoring system based on CSCW technology. We have analyzed the method of task decomposition of the system, and presented a multi-Agent cooperative commu...

Wireless communication has nowadays become one of the major worldwide causes of energy consumption in the field of ICT, with a devastating impact in terms of pollution and energy waste. As a result, the past decade has witnessed tremendous efforts and progress made by both the industry and academia for improving energy and power efficiency in current and emerging wireless communication networks...

This work investigates the cooperative output regulation problem of linear multi-agent systems with hybrid sampled data control. Due to the limited data sensing and communication, in many practical situations, only sampled data are available for the cooperation of multi-agent systems. To overcome this problem, a distributed hybrid controller is presented for the cooperative output regulation, a...

Cooperative communication has received tremendous interest for wireless networks. Most existing works on cooperative communications are focused on link-level physical layer issues. Consequently, the impacts of cooperative communications on network-level upper layer issues, such as topology control, routing and network capacity, are largely ignored. In this article, we propose a Capacity-Optimiz...

Several studies stressed that the introduction of CPOE applications deteriorates the doctor-nurse communication. But there are many factors that might influence communication behaviors, as for example the way these communications are organized. The present study aims at showing that the impact of a CPOE system on the cooperative activities can be controlled given that a good understanding of th...

This paper presents an approach to effectively support cooperative applications using tailored failure suspectors. Using a group communication subsystem, it is shown how failure suspectors can be configured to model the requirements/semantics of cooperative applications thus avoiding ad-hoc system decisions. This approach is highly relevant in the context of large scale distributed systems like...

Dedicated Short Range Communication (DSRC) technology protocols form a platform for vehicle to vehicle communications. This communication platform will enable Vehicular Adhoc NETworks (VANTEs) through which many Intelligent Transport Systems applications including cooperative positioning of vehicles become possible. Cooperative positioning integrates the on board GPS information of vehicles in ...

We propose the use of cooperative communication among single-antenna users to enhance the performance of ultrawideband networks. We consider the amplify-and-forward cooperative protocol in the multiband OFDM setting using practical channel measurements.
