HEED: a hybrid, energy-efficient, distributed clustering approach for ad hoc sensor networks

Ossama Younis, Sonia Fahmy · 1 Oct 2004

Topology control in a sensor network balances load on sensor nodes and increases network scalability and lifetime. Clustering sensor nodes is an effective topology control approach. We propose a novel distributed clustering approach for long-lived ad hoc sensor networks. Our proposed approach does not make any assumptions about the presence of infrastructure or about node…

Bidirectionally Coupled Network and Road Traffic Simulation for Improved IVC Analysis

Christoph Sommer, Reinhard German, Falko Dressler · 21 Jul 2010

Recently, many efforts have been made to develop more efficient Inter-Vehicle Communication (IVC) protocols for on-demand route planning according to observed traffic congestion or incidents, as well as for safety applications. Because practical experiments are often not feasible, simulation of network protocol behavior in Vehicular Ad Hoc Network (VANET) scenarios is strongly demanded for evaluating…

BUBBLE Rap: Social-Based Forwarding in Delay-Tolerant Networks

Pan Hui, Jon Crowcroft, Eiko Yoneki · 3 Jan 2011

The increasing penetration of smart devices with networking capability form novel networks. Such networks, also referred as pocket switched networks (PSNs), are intermittently connected and represent a paradigm shift of forwarding data in an ad hoc manner. The social structure and interaction of users of such devices dictate the performance of routing protocols in PSNs.…

The node distribution of the random waypoint mobility model for wireless ad hoc networks

Christian Bettstetter, Giovanni Resta, P. Santi · 1 Jul 2003

Abstract: The random waypoint model is a frequently used mobility model for simulation–based studies of wireless ad hoc networks. This paper inves-tigates the spatial node distribution that results from using this model. We show and interpret simulation results on a square and circular system area, derive an analytical expression of the expected node distribution in…

Impact of Human Mobility on Opportunistic Forwarding Algorithms

Augustin Chaintreau, Pan Hui, Jon Crowcroft et al. · 3 May 2007

We study data transfer opportunities between wireless devices carried by humans. We observe that the distribution of the intercontact time (the time gap separating two contacts between the same pair of devices) may be well approximated by a power law over the range [10 minutes; 1 day]. This observation is confirmed using eight distinct experimental…

IEEE Transactions on Mobile Computing template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the IEEE Transactions on Mobile Computing format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the IEEE Transactions on Mobile Computing template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official IEEE format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does IEEE Transactions on Mobile Computing use?
IEEE Transactions on Mobile Computing uses Numbered (IEEE) references, shown as numbered [1], [2] markers in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: [1] A. Smith, B. Jones, and C. Lee, "A representative article title," IEEE Transactions on Mobile Computing, vol. 12, no. 3, pp. 45–58, 2023.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to IEEE Transactions on Mobile Computing?
No. DocuGuru generates the IEEEtran LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a IEEE-ready IEEE Transactions on Mobile Computing document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the IEEE Transactions on Mobile Computing template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the IEEE Transactions on Mobile Computing format with correct headings, figures, tables, and numbered citations.
What is IEEE Transactions on Mobile Computing?
IEEE Transactions on Mobile Computing, published by IEEE. It is a engineering and computer science journal, published by IEEE.
Can I export a submission-ready IEEE Transactions on Mobile Computing PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official IEEE Transactions on Mobile Computing template (the IEEEtran class) that is ready to submit to IEEE, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the IEEE Transactions on Mobile Computing template cost?
You can start writing in the IEEE Transactions on Mobile Computing template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready IEEE Transactions on Mobile Computing PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
