Abstract--If we are to deploy sensor applications in a realistic business context, we must provide innovative middleware services to control and enforce required system behavior; i...
In wireless sensor networks (WSNs), sensor nodes are typically subjected to energy constraints and often prone to topology changes. While duty cycling has been widely used for ener...
Current methods of estimating air quality involve assigning a single value called the Air Quality Index (AQI) to a large land area for a 24-hour period based on a very few, sparse...
Wireless sensor networks are often studied with the goal of removing information from the network as efficiently as possible. However, when the application also includes an actuato...
Various healthcare areas such as diagnosis, surgery, intensive care and treatment, and patient monitoring in general, would greatly benefit from light, autonomous devices which c...
