SCIMPS: An Integrated Approach to Distributed Processing in Sensor Webs

: This paper presents a new tightly coupled computation/communication design developed to support the unique operational requirements of sensor webs. A critical challenge of sensor webs is supporting the ad hoc deployment of unknown numbers of nodes. KUASAR is a new routing algorithm developed for the unique operational modes of sensor webs. The basic operation of KUASAR is presented along with its performance capabilities in the presence of nodes being randomly added and deleted from the sensor web. The key performance capabilities and correctness of KUASAR are also presented.
