In-network sensor query processing systems (ISQPs), or sensor databases, have been developed to acquire, process and aggregate data from wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Because W...
Recent development of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) has led to the appearance of many application specific communication protocols which must be energy-efficient. Among those pro...
In this paper, we study end-to-end performance characteristics of S-MAC, an energy-aware medium access control (MAC) protocol for wireless sensor networks (WSN). WSNs are composed...
Flooding protocols for wireless networks in general have been shown to be very inefficient and therefore are mainly used in network initialization or route discovery and maintenan...
—Most of geographic routing approaches in wireless ad hoc and sensor networks do not take into consideration the medium access control (MAC) and physical layers when designing a ...
