Abstract— The 802.15.4 WSN standard provides optional reliability through positive acknowledgments. Since positive-ACKs are not designed for energy efficiency, there is significa...
— Data aggregation protocols can reduce the cost of communication, thereby extending the lifetime of sensor networks. Prior work on data aggregation protocols has focused on tree...
Because of the growing complexity of wireless sensor network applications (WSNs), traditional software development tools are being developed that are specifically designed for the...
—In a sensor network, an important problem is to provide privacy to the event detecting sensor node and integrity to the data gathered by the node. Compromised source privacy can...
This paper presents a novel colored Petri net model for the simulation of fully-switched Ethernet based networked control systems (NCS). The model of the NCS is built from models ...
