— We have developed an analysis-based design tool, ANDES, for modeling a wireless sensor network system and analyzing its performance before deployment. ANDES enables designers t...
Abstract. A Wide-Area Sensor Network (WASN) is a collection of heterogeneous sensor networks and data repositories spread over a wide geographic area. The diversity of sensor types...
The growing number of information security breaches in electronic and computing systems calls for new design paradigms that consider security as a primary design objective. This i...
