Abstract. Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) deployed in hostile environments suffer from a high rate of node failure. We investigate the effect of such failure rate on network conn...
—The need to monitor groups of mobile entities arises in many application contexts. Examples include the study of the social behavior of humans and wildlife, the shepherding of l...
—Sensing coverage and network connectivity are two fundamental issues in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Due to resource constraints of sensor nodes, it may not be possible, or ...
: Security has become the corner stone of research in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Due to the unique operational environment of WSNs, where the communication medium is open to ...
An important objective of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is to reliably sense data about the environment in which they are deployed. Reliability in WSNs has been widely studied in...
