Existing code update protocols for reprogramming nodes in a sensor network are either unsuitable or inefficient when used in a mobile environment. The prohibitive factor of uncert...
The field of pervasive computing has seen a lot of exciting innovations in the past few years. However, there are currently no mechanisms for describing the properties and capabil...
As the scale of modern sensor networks continues to grow, energy consumption, scalability and routing efficiency are becoming key design challenges. Network management plays an im...
This paper identifies requirements for querying and accessing context information in mobile and pervasive computing environments. Furthermore it studies existing query languages s...

This paper investigates wireless sensor networks where a small percentage of nodes are assumed to know their location a priori. These reference nodes enable absolute localization ...
Abstract--Analytical models to evaluate and predict "precision" performance of indoor positioning systems based on location fingerprinting are lacking. Such models can be...
Abstract--In this paper, we propose a lightweight and transparent management framework for TinyOS sensor networks, called L-SNMS, which minimizes the overhead of management functio...
