Forking Agents in Sensor Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
Information about local events are to be distributed by agents in a sensor network. The agents are sent out traveling hop-by-hop into random directions, leaving a path of information behind them in the nodes visited. An arbitrary node requesting for information also emits an agent traveling into a random direction. Though only a fraction of all nodes will contain the requested information the high probability of a requesting agent intersecting the path of an informing colleague is exploited to find the information. A major problem of this approach called Rumor Routing is that it produces a highly non-uniform distribution of information. We have tackled this problem by introducing Forking Agents.

متن کاملTarget Tracking Based on Virtual Grid in Wireless Sensor Networks
One of the most important and typical application of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is target tracking. Although target tracking, can provide benefits for large-scale WSNs and organize them into clusters but tracking a moving target in cluster-based WSNs suffers a boundary problem. The main goal of this paper was to introduce an efficient and novel mobility management protocol namely Target Tr...
