There are a number of different system concepts that have gained much relevance in the
area of embedded systems over the past couple of years. First, there is the classic concept of …

Many self-configuration problems that occur in sensor networks, such as clustering or
operator placement for in-network data aggregation, can be modeled as facility location …

This paper presents a novel tiered sensor networking architecture that employs advanced
Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) technologies for military operations. This architecture …

Small-form-factor, low-power wireless sensors-motes-are convenient to deploy, but lack the
bandwidth to capture and transmit raw high-frequency data, such as human voices or neural …

We target a two-tier sensor network with resource-rich master nodes at the upper tier and
resource-poor sensor nodes at the lower tier. Master nodes collect data from sensor nodes …

An exemplary method includes providing an application that includes client-side code and
server-side code, instrumenting the client-side code and the server-side code to generate …

This paper presents the design and implementation of a simple and elegant middleware
architecture providing virtual sensors as representatives for any type of physical sensors …

Recently, wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have been widely used in a variety of fields, and
make people's lives more convenient and efficient. However, WSNs are usually deployed in …

Abstract The Internet of Things (IoT) can be considered as a modern manifestation of Mark
Weiser's classic vision of ubiquitous computing where tiny networked computers become …

In this paper, we consider the design and implementation of practical pursuit-evasion games
with networked robots, where a communication network provides sensing-at-a-distance as …
