Efficient Data Collection and Event Boundary Detection in Wireless Sensor Networks Using Tiny Models
Using wireless geosensor networks (WGSN), sensor nodes often monitor a phenomenon that is both continuous in time and space. However, sensor nodes take discrete samples, and an ana...

Coverage and hole-detection in sensor networks via homology
We consider coverage problems in sensor networks of stationary nodes with minimal geometric data. In particular, there are no coordinates and no localization of nodes. We introduc...

On the impact of manufacturing process variations on the lifetime of sensor networks
As an emerging technology, sensor networks provide the ability to accurately monitor the characteristics of wide geographical areas over long periods of time. The lifetime of indi...

Performance characteristics of collaborative beamforming for wireless sensor networks with Gaussian distributed sensor nodes
Collaborative beamforming has been recently introduced in the context of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) to increase the transmission range of individual sensor nodes. In this pap...

Low-coordination topologies for redundancy in sensor networks
Tiny, low-cost sensor devices are expected to be failure-prone and hence in many realistic deployment scenarios for sensor networks these nodes are deployed in higher than necessa...

Energy and rate based MAC protocol for wireless sensor networks
Abstract-- Sensor networks are typically unattended because of their deployment in hazardous, hostile or remote environments. This makes the problem of conserving energy at individ...
