as pdf.
Midterm exams have been graded. I will be mailing out the grades today. On campus students can pick up their midterms during class tomorrow. Off campus students should be receiving their midterms through the courier service.
05/28 -- Reading list for Power and Topology management has been updated
!!! IMP pls see guidelines for project demos under Project Guidelines. (posted)
06/01 -- Clarification on Project Guidelines.
You can continue to use whatever environment you are working on for your project report and to generate your graphs/tables etc. For the demo we only need to see your simulation results (ie. trace.out file). You dont need to run any scripts to generate the tables/graphs for the demo. Once you are finished with your report just archive your entire glomosim directory and scp or sftp it to your accounts on sanskriti. Untar it and run "make" after making changes to the makefile as specified in the projects page. If your code compiles under solaris/windows it should compile under linux without any changes (in most cases). This way we have access to your implementation code in case we need to look at it. If you have any questions you can always mail me.
06/01 -- Hw4 has been canceled to allow for more time for project reports.
06/01 -- Midterm Exam Grading issues.
If you have any questions about problem (7) you can talk to katia directly. For all other midterm problems, you can drop by the lab or mail me.
06/03 -- Updated the reading list for Sensor Networks
06/08 -- Graded Hw3 will be handed during the demos.
The demos will be held in Lab 399C Baskin Engineeing building.

This course covers various topics relevant to wireless communication and mobile computing. The main emphasis is on higher-layer protocol (MAC and above) issues. The course will require extensive reading (especially research literature), in-class participation and discussions.
