In this paper, we propose a bandwidth-efficient multicast mechanism for heterogeneous wireless networks. We reduce the bandwidth cost of an Internet Protocol (IP) multicast tree by...
This paper discusses several distributed poweraware routing protocols in wireless ad-hoc networks (especially sensor networks). We seek to optimize the lifetime of the network. We...
Abstract— Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) employed in monitoring applications require data collected by the sensors to be deposited at specific nodes, referred to as drains. To ...
Imagine a future environment where networks of agents - people, robots and software agents - interact with sophisticated sensor grids and environmental actuators to provide advice,...
— In this paper, we address the network maintenance problem, in which we aim to maximize the lifetime of a sensor network by adding a set of relays to it. The network lifetime is...
