Solving Coverage Problems with Embedded Graph Grammars
We show how Embedded Graph Grammars (EGGs) are used to specify local interaction rules between mobile robots in a natural manner. This formalism allows us to treat local network to...

Optimal Movement-Assisted Sensor Deployment and Its Extensions in Wireless Sensor Networks
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...
