1. Read and then comment on the following papers.

Yao-Jen Chang, Shan-Yao Wu, Ting-Liang Shih, Intersection Location Service and Performance Comparison of Three Location Service Algorithms for Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks in City Environments

nILS可以說是一套專門為都市街道環境設計的Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks 演算法，考量到形成Ad Hoc Networks需要一定數量的peers，所以都市街道環境就是一個最佳環境，而ILS也在模擬中表現優於另兩種知名的演算法，足以證明其設計規劃的成功。

Yao-Jen Chang, Tseng-Yun Wang, Shi-Kai Tsai, Yu-Chia Chuang, "Action Science Approach to Experimenting Nonprofit Web 2.0 Services for Employment of Individuals with Mental Impairments" 2007 International Workshop on Social Media Analysis in conjunction with ACM/IEEE Web Intelligence 2007. (EI)

在Web 2.0的理念下，blog展現了良好的互動反應能力；以人為本，事為主的交流形式更能提昇資訊的查找與使用，但是資訊快速流通就必須注意到某些資料的隱密性，另外如果在共同編輯的blog上參與的人過多，或是過於良莠不齊，就必須將"管理"做好，這會對管理者產生ㄧ些額外的負擔。


2. Why is CSMA/CA instead of CSMA/CD used for 802.11?

因為在802.11的應用範圍內，由於無線傳送包含隱藏終端問題(A B C
C不在A的範圍A也不在C的範圍，他們又同時傳給B)，路徑的準位變動相對大很多，所以對於Collision Detection是無法達成，就採用需要較長時間的Collision Avoidance。
