The miniaturization of hardware components has lead to the development of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) and networked-applications over them. Meanwhile, middleware systems have a...
Considering wireless sensor networks for border surveillance, one of the major concerns is sensing coverage. Breach probability can be used as a measure to analyze the tradeoffs a...
In this paper, we consider the problem of inferring per node loss rates from passive end-to-end measurements in wireless sensor networks. Specifically, we consider the case of in...
Abstract. Wireless sensor networks increasingly become viable solutions to many challenging problems and will successively be deployed in many areas in the future. However, deployi...

Abstract. Wireless sensor networks benefit from communication protocols that reduce power requirements by avoiding frame collision. Time Division Media Access methods schedule tra...
In many applications of wireless sensor networks (WSN), sensors are deployed un-tethered in hostile environments. For locationaware WSN applications, it is essential to ensure tha...
We propose the Firecracker protocol for data dissemination in wireless sensor networks. Firecracker uses a combination of routing and broadcasts to rapidly deliver a piece of data...
The enormous potential for wireless sensor networks to make a positive impact on our society has spawned a great deal of research on the topic, and this research is now producing ...
