In wireless sensor networks (WSNs), a good sensor deployment method is vital to the quality of service (QoS) provided by WSNs. This QoS depends on the coverage of the monitoring a...
Sensor networks have attracted intensive interests due to its extendable capability. In this paper, we attempt to answer a fundamental but practical question:” how should we dep...
Wireless sensor networks consist of sensor nodes which are expected to be battery-powered and are hard to replace or recharge. Thus, reducing the energy consumption of sensor nodes...
To achieve required sensing coverage for a very long period of time is an important and challenging problem in sensor network design. Recently, Tong et al. have proposed a node rep...
Abstract-- We present a new, biologically-inspired algorithm for the problem of covering a given region with wireless "units" (sensors or base-stations). The general prob...
