Abstract--Energy efficiency is critical for wireless sensor networks. The data-gathering process must be carefully designed to conserve energy and extend network lifetime. For appl...
—For the sake of maximizing the network lifetime, we propose a novel placement scheme for mobile data collectors in Underwater Acoustic Sensor Networks (UASNs). Our scheme is bas...
—Sleep-wake scheduling is an effective mechanism to prolong the lifetime of energy-constrained wireless sensor networks. However, it incurs an additional delay for packet deliver...
