• Presents a combined view of content and wireless technologies useful to both the industry and academia
• Offers a good mix of theory and practice to understand the internal working of the wireless/mobile content delivery networks
• Bridges the gap between the wireless and content research communities
• Focuses not only on the latest technology enablers for speedier content delivery in the mobile Internet, but also on how to integrate them to provide workable end-to-end solutions

In this book we investigate two problems concerning wireless sensor networks: (A) energy efficient medium access control and (B) scalable routing architecture for very large wireless sensor networks. Regarding to the first problem, we propose a Self Reorganizing Slot Allocation (SRSA) mechanism for a TDMA-based medium access control (MAC) protocol. The primary contribution is to demonstrate that with adaptive slot allocation algorithms, it is possible to minimize such interference under low traffic loading conditions. The second contribution is to design a feedback-based adaptive allocation...
