This paper addresses the problem of determining the node locations in ad-hoc sensor networks when only connectivity information is available. In previous work, we showed that the ...
Background: Phytochromes are photoreceptors, discovered in plants, that control a wide variety of developmental processes. They have also been found in bacteria and fungi, but for...
Many sensor network applications require that each node’s sensor stream be annotated with its physical location in some common coordinate system. Manual measurement and configu...
