Distributed Dynamic Storage

CS 895 Mobile Computing. February 2006 Old Dominion University.

Summary: 

Wireless sensor networks have performance requirements similar to other information systems, i.e., Redundancy, Fault-tolerance, Response time, and Availability. This lecture explores the design of a local distributed storage solution that attempts to meet these requirements.

TARA: Topology-Aware Resource Adaptation to Alleviate Congestion in Sensor Networks

CS 895 Mobile Computing. April 2006. Old Dominion University.

Summary: 

Sensor networks suffer from traffic congestion and the need to balance both capacity and fidelity. This lecture presents one method for striking that balance.

Mission Critical Reporting In Sensor Information Systems (CRISIS)

CS 895 Mobile Computing. May 2006. Old Dominion University. [Algorithm Flowchart also attached.]

Summary: 

A proposal for managing the flow of critical information from a sensor network to the main station in a timely fashion.
