Caching techniques can be used to reduce bandwidth consumption and data access delay in wireless ad hoc networks. When cache is used, cache consistency issues must be addressed. T...
— An important class of queries over sensor networks are network-wide aggregation queries. In this work we study a class of aggregation queries which we refer to as aggregate thr...
Abstract--Many efforts are centered around creating largescale networks of "smart things" found in the physical world (e.g., wireless sensor and actuator networks, embedd...
Ad hoc networks are exposed more than traditional networks to security threats due to their mobility and open architecture aspects. In addition, any dysfunction due to badly congu...
—Although network-wide flooding in reactive routing protocols like AODV [1] facilitates the discovery of optimal routes, they engender large control overhead. Some efficient floo...
