Broadcasting is a commonly used feature in wireless networking, e.g. for file distribution, re-tasking, event notification, or miscellaneous maintenance. Due to the limited resourc...
Imagine a future environment where networks of agents - people, robots and software agents - interact with sophisticated sensor grids and environmental actuators to provide advice,...
Abstract. We present a method to specify software for a special kind of safetycritical embedded systems, where sensors deliver low-level values that must be abstracted and pre-proc...
Modeling communications in wireless networks is a challenging task since it asks for a simple mathematical object on which efficient algorithms can be designed, but that must also...
— In sensor networks, MAC protocols based on Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) with wakeup and sleep periods have attracted considerable interest because of their low power co...
