—Ubiquitous and pervasive computing envisions context-aware systems that gather real world information from many fixed and mobile microchips and sensors integrated in everyday o...
In contention-based sensor networks, nodes compete to access a shared channel for data transmission and collision is a common challenge. For power conservation, periodical active/s...
Unbalanced energy consumption is an inherent problem in wireless sensor networks where some nodes may be overused and die out early, resulting in a short network lifetime. In this...
Wireless sensor nodes are used to monitor patient vital signs in a medical application. To ensure proper patient care is provided, real-time patient data must be managed correctly...
