In old times, castles were surrounded by moats (deep trenches filled with water, and even alligators) to thwart or discourage intrusion attempts. One can now replace such barrier...
Compared to conventional wireless sensor networks (WSNs) that are operated based on the client-server computing model, mobile agent (MA) systems provide new capabilities for energy...

— Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are generally used for harsh environments involving military surveillance, emergency response, and habitat monitoring. Due to severe resource co...
In this paper we discuss the lifetime of an battery powered device which acts as a gateway between a wireless sensor network and a standard network. The wireless communication stan...
— We propose an Efficient Reliable Data Collection (eRDC) algorithm. The eRDC is designed for energy-constraint wireless sensor networks (WSN) to balance reliability and energy c...
