—Since sensor nodes use batteries as their source of energy, energy-based routing becomes an important requirement to extend network lifetime. This routing is done using the node...
—Wireless ad hoc networks are seldom characterized by one single performance metric, yet the current literature lacks a flexible framework to assist in characterizing the design...
Wireless sensor networks enhance our ability to monitor the physical world. Many recent researches on wireless sensor networks have focused on aspects such as routing, node cooper...
