Deterministic Service Guarantees In 802.12 Networks, Part II: The Cascaded Network Case
White Papers In this paper, we analyse cascaded (multi- hub) 802.12 topologies. We derive the relevant network parameters and show that the admission control conditions defined in part I also apply to cascaded topologies when used with these parameters.

An Evolutionary Bluetooth Scatternet Formation Protocol
White Papers Wireless technologies such as 802.11 do not impose topology constraints on the network; however, Bluetooth imposes certain constraints for constructing valid topologies. The performance of Bluetooth depends largely on these topologies.
