Buildings are known to be the largest consumers of electricity in the United States, and often times the dominant energy consumer is the HVAC system. Despite this fact, in most bu...
In this paper, we present a family of adaptive protocols, called SPIN (Sensor Protocols for Information via Negotiation), that efficiently disseminate information among sensors in ...

—The inherent many-to-one flow of traffic in Wireless Sensor Networks produces a skewed distribution of energy consumption rates leading to the early demise of those sensors that...
The future mass deployment of pervasive and dense sensor network infrastructures calls for proper mechanisms to enable extracting general-purpose data from them at limited costs a...
In this paper we investigate the problem of uneven energy consumptions in a large class of many-to-one sensor networks. In a many-to-one sensor network, all sensor nodes generate ...
