End-to-end performance characteristics in energy-aware wireless sensor networks
In this paper, we study end-to-end performance characteristics of S-MAC, an energy-aware medium access control (MAC) protocol for wireless sensor networks (WSN). WSNs are composed...

Sift: A MAC Protocol for Event-Driven Wireless Sensor Networks
Nodes in sensor networks often encounter spatially-correlated contention, where multiple nodes in the same neighborhood all sense an event they need to transmit information about....

Time-based localization for asynchronous wireless sensor networks
In this paper, we propose time-based localization approaches for asynchronous wireless sensor networks (WSNs), where not only clock skews but also clock offsets are present at all...
