Collaborative sensing leverages the cooperation of a collection of sensors to complete a
large-scale sensing task in Internet of Things (IoT). Although some previous studies have …

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have many fields of application, including industrial,
environmental and military domains. Monitoring a given zone is one of the main goals of this …

For various applications, sensors are deployed to monitor belt regions to guarantee that
every movement crossing a barrier of sensors will be detected in real-time with high …

Barrier coverage is an important research issue in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Barrier
gaps may exist due to deployment randomness or battery depletion. It is critical to address …

The motivation for writing this book came from our previous research works on sensor
coverage. They received a large number of citations and this number grows rapidly each …

Barrier coverage is an essential issue in wireless sensor networks for its various
applications. Traditional barrier coverage, however, has a tight requirement that sensor …

Critical homeland security applications, such as international border surveillance and zone
monitoring in case of biological attacks, require the timely creation of a barrier of sensors …

Periodic monitoring is sufficient for sweep coverage with a small number of mobile sensor
nodes, whereas a continuous monitoring with static sensor nodes is required for the …

Deploying wireless sensor networks (WSNs) to form a barrier that provides surveillance
against illegal intruders (or targets) is a fundamental sensor-allocation problem. In this …

How to construct barrier coverage efficiently is a critical problem for many wireless sensor
network applications, such as boundary surveillance and intrusion detection. In this paper …
