A one-stop resource for the use of algorithms and protocols inwireless sensor networks
From an established international researcher in the field, thisedited volume provides readers with comprehensive coverage of thefundamental algorithms and protocols for wireless sensor networks.It identifies the research that needs to be conducted on a numberof levels to design and assess the deployment of wireless sensornetworks, and provides an in-depth analysis of the development ofthe next generation of heterogeneous wireless sensor networks.
Divided into nineteen succinct chapters, the book covers:mobility management and resource allocation algorithms;communication models; energy and power consumption algorithms;performance modeling and simulation;
authentication and reputation mechanisms; algorithms forwireless sensor and mesh networks; and algorithm methods forpervasive and ubiquitous computing; among other topics.
Complete with a set of challenging exercises, this book is avaluable resource for electrical engineers, computer engineers,network engineers, and computer science specialists. Useful forinstructors and students alike, Algorithms and Protocols forWireless Sensor Networks is an ideal textbook for advancedundergraduate and graduate courses in computer science, electricalengineering,and network engineering.
