Abstract. Two difficulties in designing data-centric routes [2–5] in wireless sensor networks are the lack of reasonably practical data aggregation models and the high computatio...
Mobile ad hoc networks have attracted attention lately as a means of providing continuous network connectivity to mobile computing devices regardless of physical location. Recent r...
— Multicast-based data communication is an efficient communication scheme especially in multihop ad hoc networks where the MAC layer is based on one-hop broadcast from one sourc...
Sparse wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are being effectively used in several applications, which include transportation, urban safety, environment monitoring, and many others. Sens...
