— We consider the problem of gathering data from a sensor network using mobile elements. In particular, we consider the case where the data are produced by measurements and need ...
Unlike traditional multihop forwarding among homogeneous static sensor nodes, use of mobile devices for data collection in wireless sensor networks has recently been gathering more...
—Many sensing systems remotely monitor/measure an environment at several sites, and then report these observations to a central site. We propose and investigate several practical...
—In many applications, it is a basic operation for the sink to periodically collect reports from all sensors. Since the data gathering process usually proceeds for many rounds, i...
—In this paper we propose a clustering and routing scheme for wireless sensor networks based on a self-organizing approach. The aim of this approach is for nodes to perform an in...
