: We propose a novel data collection architecture, called Ring-based Information Collection Architecture (RICA), for sensor networks. In the RICA scheme, sensors are organised into...
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 ...

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have been proposed for a large variety of applications. As the number of applications of sensor networks continue to grow, the number of users in se...
In this paper we study the performance trade-offs between conventional cellular and ad-hoc peer-to-peer wireless networks. We compare through simulations the performance of the tw...
Mobile elements, which can traverse the deployment area and convey the observed data from static sensor nodes to a base station, have been introduced for energy efficient data co...
