In this paper we present an analysis of a MAC (Medium Access Control) protocol for wireless sensor networks. The purpose of this protocol is to manage wireless media access by con...
—Distributed computing systems often strive to decouple their communicating components (threads on a single node, or nodes in a network) from each other with respect to time, spa...
— Distributed time synchronization is an important part of a sensor network where sensing and actuation must be coordinated across multiple nodes. Several time synchronization pr...
This paper presents an efficient distributed self-monitoring mechanism for a class of wireless sensor networks used for monitoring and surveillance. In these applications, it is i...
