—The IEEE 802.15.4 standard has no provisions for rate sensitive applications because of its ability to operate in pure CSMA/CA or TDMA modes. Some operating scenarios for rate-s...
Connectivity in wireless ad hoc and sensor networks is typically analyzed using a graph-theoretic approach. In this paper, we investigate an alternative communication-theoretic app...

A wireless sensor network (WSN) consists of many tiny and low-power devices deployed in a sensing field. One of the major tasks of a WSN is to monitor the surrounding environment...
Abstract—Intuitively, identification of nodes close to the network edge is key to the successful setup, and continued operation, of many sensor network protocols and application...
—“Autonomic systems” merge advancements in the field of multi-agent software design, dynamic analysis, and decentralized control in order to assist designers in constructing...
