Abstract--Sensors equipped with energy harvesting and cooperative communication capabilities are a viable solution to the power limitations of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) assoc...
—Shannon’s discovery of digital communication has shaped the architecture of virtually all communication systems in use today. The digital communication paradigm is built aroun...
Monitoring extreme values (MAX or MIN) is a fundamental problem in wireless sensor networks (and in general, complex dynamic systems). This problem presents very different algorit...
—Distributed computing systems often strive to decouple their communicating components (threads on a single node, or nodes in a network) from each other with respect to time, spa...
Energy efficiency is of the utmost importance in wireless sensor networks. The family of low-power-listening MAC protocols was proposed to reduce one form of energy dissipation...
