One of the most common communication patterns in sensor networks is routing data to a base station, while the base station can be either static or mobile. Even in static cases, a s...
—The overlay-based network architecture has been recognized as an effective way to deal with the funneling effect in sensor networks, where sensors closer to the sink are usually...
—This paper proposes a mobile-agent-based data gathering system (called TinyBee) in wireless sensor networks. Most existing mobile-agent-based systems consider only static sinks/...
— When an emergency occurs within a building, it may be initially safer to send autonomous mobile nodes, instead of human responders, to explore the area and identify hazards and...
Today's wireless sensor networks have limited flexibility because their software is static. Mobile agents alleviate this problem by introducing mobile code and state. Mobile ...
