Reliable Actuation in Sensor Networks
Abstract—We present a protocol that uses a publish/subscribe approach to perform reliable but efficient actuation over a sensor network whose topology may change. Actuation on a...

Level the buffer wall: Fair channel assignment in wireless sensor networks
—In this paper, we study the trade-off between network throughput and fairness in a multi-channel enabled WSN. Traditional approaches attempt to solve the two problems in an isol...

Fitness importance for online evolution
To complement standard fitness functions, we propose "Fitness Importance" (FI) as a novel meta-heuristic for online learning systems. We define FI and show how it can be...

Detecting Suspicious Motion with Nonimaging Sensors
—Automated distributed sentry systems need only detect suspicious behavior. Microphones and infrared detectors may suffice, as well as being simpler and cheaper than cameras whil...

Time Synchronization for High Latency Acoustic Networks
— Distributed time synchronization is an important part of a sensor network where sensing and actuation must be coordinated across multiple nodes. Several time synchronization pr...
