We present the definition and performance evaluation of a protocol for building and maintaining a connected backbone among the nodes of a wireless sensor networks (WSN). Building ...
Circuit networks are expensive to build, difficult to operate, fragile, and not easily scalable. Many network operators would like to carry circuit traffic as an overlay on top of...

We present a science-centric evaluation of a 19-day sensor network deployment at Reventador, an active volcano in Ecuador. Each of the 16 sensors continuously sampled seismic and ...

As a network evolves over time, multiple operators modify its configuration, without fully considering what has previously been done. Similar policies are defined more than once, ...
Sleep-wake protocols are critical in sensor networks to ensure long-lived operation. However, an open problem is how to develop efficient mechanisms that can be incorporated with ...
