Surveillance has been a typical application of wireless sensor networks. To conduct surveillance of a given area in real life, one can use stationary watch towers, or can also use...
Energy conservation is one of the primary goals of the majority of MAC protocols designed for wireless sensor networks. In Sensor-MAC (S-MAC), one of the first MAC protocols design...
An effective approach for energy conservation in wireless sensor networks is scheduling sleep intervals for extraneous nodes, while the remaining nodes stay active to provide cont...
Wireless sensor, actuator networks (WSANs) distinguish themselves from wireless sensor networks by the need to coordinate actuators' actions, real-time constraints on communi...
