A MAC protocol specifies how nodes in a sensor network access a shared communication channel. Desired properties of a MAC protocol are: it should be contention-free (avoid collisio...

Abstract. A crucial issue in the management of sensor networks is the continuous monitoring of residual energy level of the sensors in the network. In this paper, we propose a hier...
Data gathering is a common but critical operation in many applications of wireless sensor networks. The innovative techniques that improve energy efficiency to prolong the network ...
— We consider an important performance measure of wireless sensor networks, namely, the least number of nodes, N, required to facilitate routing between any pair of nodes, allowi...

In this paper, we consider a class of energy-aware routing algorithm that explicitly takes into account the connectivity of the remaining sensor network. In typical sensor network ...
