: We propose a novel data collection architecture, called Ring-based Information Collection Architecture (RICA), for sensor networks. In the RICA scheme, sensors are organised into...
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have been proposed for a large variety of applications. As the number of applications of sensor networks continue to grow, the number of users in se...
Mobile elements, which can traverse the deployment area and convey the observed data from static sensor nodes to a base station, have been introduced for energy efficient data co...
—The inherent many-to-one flow of traffic in Wireless Sensor Networks produces a skewed distribution of energy consumption rates leading to the early demise of those sensors that...
Abstract. A dramatic increase of event monitoring capabilities by wireless sensors requires new, more sophisticated, event correlation over time and space. This new paradigm implie...
