We present the definition and performance evaluation of a protocol for building and maintaining a connected backbone among the nodes of a wireless sensor networks (WSN). Building ...
Dynamic connectivity is a well-studied problem, but so far the most compelling progress has been confined to the edge-update model: maintain an understanding of connectivity in a...
It is important to have continuous connectivity in a wireless sensor network after it is deployed in a hostile environment. However, such networks are constrained by the low usert...
Wireless sensor networks have been widely used in many surveillance applications. Due to the importance of sensor nodes in such applications, certain level of protection needs to b...
Abstract— In most sensor networks the nodes are static. Nevertheless, the node connectivity is subject to changes because of disruptions in wireless connectivity, transmission po...
