Recent research shows that significant energy saving can be achieved in wireless sensor networks by using mobile elements (MEs) capable of carrying data mechanically. However, the ...
The distance between nodes in a wireless sensor network (WSN) is an important factor in the performance that can be extracted from the network for many tasks. However, the distanc...
Abstract-- Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) require energyef cient protocols to improve the network lifetime. In this work, we adopt a cross-layer strategy that considers routing an...
—This paper presents a distributed algorithm to direct evacuees to exits through arbitrarily complex building layouts in emergency situations. The algorithm finds the safest pat...
In wireless ad hoc sensor networks, energy use is in many cases the most important constraint since it corresponds directly to operational lifetime. Topology management schemes su...
