: In this paper, we present a two-tiered scheduling approach for effective energy conservation in wireless sensor networks. The effectiveness of this mechanism relies on dynamicall...
Abstract— Due to the rapid growth of personal communications, it is now believed that multi-hop topologies will certainly play a key role in forthcoming wireless communications s...
An important problem in wireless networks, such as wireless ad hoc and sensor networks, is to select a few nodes to form a virtual backbone that supports routing and other tasks s...
We present a sensor network testbed that monitors a hallway. It consists of 120 load sensors and 29 passive infrared sensors (PIRs), connected to 30 wireless sensor nodes. There ar...
— Lifetime maximization is one key element in the design of sensor-network-based surveillance applications. We propose a protocol for node sleep scheduling that guarantees a boun...
