Wireless sensor network applications, similarly to other distributed systems, often require a scalable time synchronization service enabling data consistency and coordination. Thi...
—Energy consumption is a critical parameter in wireless healthcare systems which consist of battery operated devices such as sensors and local aggregators. The system battery lif...
— Group Communication services have become more and more important in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). The use of multicast transmission techniques in MANETs has been shown to ha...
The development of high-level programming environments is essential if wireless sensor networks are to be accessible to nonexperts. In this paper, we present the Regiment system, ...
This paper presents a distributed middleware architecture based on a service-oriented approach, to manage high volume sensor events. Event management takes a multi-step operation f...
