Motivated by many applications, top-k query is a fundamental operation in modern database systems. Technological advances have enabled the deployment of large-scale sensor networks...
—Fault tolerance techniques have been widely used in wireless sensor networks. Base station placement to maximize the network lifetime has also been well studied. However, limite...
Abstract—Spectrum sensing is one of the key enabling technologies in Cognitive Radio Networks (CRNs). In CRNs, secondary users (SUs) are allowed to exploit the spectrum opportuni...

Abstract—We revisit the shortest path problem in asynchronous duty-cycled wireless sensor networks, which exhibit time-dependent features. We model the time-varying link cost and...
A simple random walk (SRW) has been considered as an effective forwarding method for many applications in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) due to its desirable properties. However...
