Wireless Sensor Networks provides a thorough description of the nuts and bolts of wireless …

Spatial query execution is an essential functionality of a sensor network, where a query
gathers sensor data within a specific geographic region. Redundancy within a sensor …

This book provides a comprehensive yet easy coverage of ad hoc and sensor networks and
fills the gap of existing literature in this growing field. It emphasizes that there is a major …

Combinatorial (or discrete) optimization is one of the most active fields in the interface of
operations research, computer science, and applied math ematics. Combinatorial …

The emergence of sensor networks as one of the dominant technology trends in the coming
decades (Technol. Rev.(February 2003)) has posed numerous unique challenges to …

Recently developed classes of wireless networks have blurred the distinction between the
network infrastructure and network clients. Sensor networks, for example, consist of one or …

In this article, we design techniques that exploit data correlations in sensor data to minimize
communication costs (and hence, energy costs) incurred during data gathering in a sensor …

Sensor networks not only have the potential to change the way we use, interact with, and
view computers, but also the way we use, interact with, and view the world around us. In …

A wireless ad hoc sensor network consists of a number of sensors spreading across a
geographical area. The performance of the network suffers as the number of nodes grows …
