This is an introduction to multicast routing, which is the study of methods for routing from one
source to many destinations, or from many sources to many destinations. Multicast is …

The early detection of wildfires with monitoring sensors can improve the effectiveness of fire
responders, decreasing the destruction of property and saving lives. However, distributing …

In line with the pervasive vision, pervasive sensing allows the provision of ubiquitous and
pervasive monitoring and heterogeneous data collection. In the past decade, two dominant …

This article presents a novel approach to the analysis of wireless sensor networks (WSN)
security, based on the regulations intended for wireless communication devices. Starting …

In this work, we report on one aspect of an autonomous digital evidence acquisition system
that we are developing. Many a times forensic investigators need to operate autonomous …

Research on Moving Object Databases (MOD) has resulted in sophisticated query
mechanisms for moving objects and regions. Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) support a …

Some sensor network applications involve an aerial deployment of many sensor nodes over
a particular area of interest. In this context, current range-free localization proposals, based …

This thesis proposes an integrated suite of battery-aware and energy-efficient algorithms for
routing and scheduling in wireless mobile ad hoc networks, wireless sensor networks and …

Distributed environmental monitoring with wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is one of the
most challenging research activities faced by the embedded system community in the last …

A priority task for homeland security is the coverage of large spans of open border that
cannot be continuously physically monitored for intrusion. Low-cost monitoring solutions …
