Abstract. In this paper we consider a distributed and efficient information dissemination and retrieval system for wireless sensor networks. In such a system each sensor node opera...
A cross-layered slotted ALOHA protocol is proposed and analyzed for distributed estimation in sensor networks. Suppose that the sensors in the network record local measurements of ...
The backup of large data sets is preferably performed automatically outside of regular working hours. In highly structured computer networks, however, faults and exceptions may rel...
— The increasing availability of sensing devices has made the possibility of context-aware pervasive computing applications real. However, constructing this software requires ext...
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are known to be highly energy-constrained and each network’s lifetime has a strong dependence on the nodes’ battery capacity. As such, the netw...
