Sift: A MAC Protocol for Event-Driven Wireless Sensor Networks
Nodes in sensor networks often encounter spatially-correlated contention, where multiple nodes in the same neighborhood all sense an event they need to transmit information about....

On the scaling laws of dense wireless sensor networks
We consider dense wireless sensor networks deployed to observe arbitrary random fields. The requirement is to reconstruct an estimate of the random field at a certain collector ...

Essentia: Architecting Wireless Sensor Networks Asymmetrically
Abstract—In this paper, we advocate asymmetric function placement as one of guiding principles to architect sensor network systems. We demonstrate its generic applicability and e...
