The paper presents a routing algorithm that maximizes the lifetime of a sensor network in
which all data packets are destined for a single collection node. Lifetime is maximized by …

This article proposes the minimum power configuration (MPC) approach to power
management in wireless sensor networks. In contrast to earlier research that treats different …

This paper presents a distributed algorithm for efficient Time Division Multiple Access
(TDMA) slot allocation in Wireless Sensor Networks. Unlike most of the existent proposals …

In this paper we present an efficient design technique for implementing the elliptic curve
cryptographic (ECC) scheme in FPGAs. Our technique is based on a novel and efficient …

H-MAC, a novel time division multiple access (TDMA) MAC protocol, aims to improve body
