Continuous and reliable operation of WSNs is notoriously difficult to guarantee due to hardware degradation and environmental changes. In this paper, we propose and demonstrate a ...
The programming and retasking of sensor nodes could benefit greatly from the use of a virtual machine (VM) since byte code is compact, can be loaded on demand, and interpreted on...
Small-form-factor, low-power wireless sensors—motes—are convenient to deploy, but lack the bandwidth to capture and transmit raw high-frequency data, such as human voices or n...
