We present the design goals and functional components of MASTAQ, a data management middleware for pervasive applications that utilize sensor data. MASTAQ allows applications to sp...
A medium access control (MAC) protocol is proposed that is suitable for non-synchronized ad-hoc networks, and in particular for the energy-constrained underwater acoustic networks...
This article analyzes the connectivity of multihop radio networks in a log-normal shadow fading environment. Assuming the nodes have equal transmission capabilities and are randoml...
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) may be deployed in hostile or inaccessible environments and are often unattended. In these conditions securing a WSN against malicious attacks is a...
—In this paper, an information grouping paradigm for QoI in sensor networks is introduced. First, a definition of QoI is presented by analyzing the ITU’s definition of QoS. T...
