Nodes in sensor networks often encounter spatially-correlated contention, where multiple nodes in the same neighborhood all sense an event they need to transmit information about....
Abstract. Sink mobility creates new challenges for several sensor network applications. In mobile sink environments, each sink must propagate its current location continuously, thr...
Abstract. Sensor network devices have limited battery resources primarily consumed by radio communication. Network nodes play different communication roles and consequently consume...

Abstract. We propose a lightweight localisation approach for supporting distance and range queries in ad hoc wireless sensor networks. In contrast to most previous localisation app...

This paper presents two lifetime models that describe two of the most common modes of operation of sensor nodes today, triggerdriven and duty-cycle driven. The models use a set of ...

Abstract. This paper introduces Crankshaft, a MAC protocol specifically targeted at dense wireless sensor networks. Crankshaft employs node synchronisation and offset wake-up sched...
Initial deployments of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) were based on a many-to-one communication paradigm, where a single sink collects data from a number of data sources. Recently...

Many applications in wireless sensor networks rely on data from neighboring nodes. However, the effort for developing efficient solutions for sharing data in the neighborhood is of...
