— In this paper, we consider the problem of scheduling sensor activity to maximize network lifetime while maintaining both discrete targets coverage and network connectivity. We ...
—Sensing coverage and network connectivity are two fundamental issues in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Due to resource constraints of sensor nodes, it may not be possible, or ...
Abstract—In contrast to existing work on the connected coverage problem in wireless sensor networks which assumes omnidirectional sensors with disk-like sensing range, this paper...

Sensor deployment is a critical issue because it affects the cost and detection capability of a wireless sensor network. In this work, we consider two related deployment problems: ...
In old times, castles were surrounded by moats (deep trenches filled with water, and even alligators) to thwart or discourage intrusion attempts. One can now replace such barrier...
