— Even for a specific application, the design space of wireless sensor networks is enormous, and traditional disciplinary boundaries are disappearing in the search for efficien...
We present the definition and performance evaluation of a protocol for building and maintaining a connected backbone among the nodes of a wireless sensor networks (WSN). Building ...
— Following a toxic contaminant release, either accidental or intentional, predicting the transport and dispersion of the contaminant becomes a critical problem for Homeland Defe...

Abstract--In this paper we analyze the energy-efficiency of distributed compression and its dependence on the node deployment strategies for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). Reduce...
This paper explores an approach to global, stochastic, simulation optimization which combines stochastic approximation (SA) with simulated annealing (SAN). SA directs a search of ...
