in this paper, an algorithm , based on genetics and auxiliary nodes, to reduce energy consumption in wireless sensor networks has been presented. in this research, by considering some parameters as energy and distance, a target function has been created, which is more optimum comparing to other methods. in this research cluster head is selected by genetic algorithm. in rawsn algorithm a new tec...

in this paper we proposed a cellular automaton based local algorithm to solve the autonomously sensor gathering problem in mobile wireless sensor networks (mwsn). in this problem initially the connected mobile sensors deployed in the network and goal is gather all sensors into one location. the sensors decide to move only based on their local information. cellular automaton (ca) as dynamical sy...

Wireless sensor networks have been widely considered as one of the most important 21th century technologies and are used in so many applications such as environmental monitoring, security and surveillance. Wireless sensor networks are used when it is not possible or convenient to supply signaling or power supply wires to a wireless sensor node. The wireless sensor node must be battery powered.C...

Body area networks is one of the types of wireless area networks which has been created to optimize utilizing hospital resources and for earlier diagnosis of medical symptoms, and ultimately to reduce the cost of medical care. This network like most of the wireless networks is without infrastructure and the embedded sensor nodes in the body have limited energy. Hence, the early power completion...

a wireless sensor network consists of many inexpensive sensor nodes that can be used toconfidently extract data from the environment .nodes are organized into clusters and in each cluster all non-cluster nodes transmit their data only to the cluster-head .the cluster-head transmits all received data to the base station .because of energy limitation in sensor nodes and energy reduction in each d...

this paper proposes an efficient network architecture to improve energy consumption in wireless sensor networks (wsn). the proposed architecture uses a mobile data collector to a partitioned network. the mobile data collector moves to center of each logical partition after each decision period. the mobile data collector must declare its new location by packet broadcasting to all sensor nodes. h...

the monitoring of epileptic seizures is mainly done by means of eeg (electroencephalogram) monitoring. although this method is accurate, it is not comfortable for the patient as the eeg-electrodes have to be attached to the scalp which hampers the patient’s movement. this makes long term home monitoring not feasible. in this paper the aim is to propose a seizure detection system based on accele...

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have many applications in the areas of commercial, military and environmental requirements. Regarding the deployment of low cost sensor nodes with restricted energy resources, these networks face a lot of security challenges. A basic approach for preparing a secure wireless communication in WSNs, is to propose an efficient cryptographic key management protocol be...

a sensor network is made up of a large number of sensors with limited energy. sensors collect environmental data then send them to the sink. energy efficiency and thereby increasing the lifetime of sensor networks is important. direct transfer of the data from each node to the central station will increase energy consumption. previous research has shown that the organization of nodes in cluster...
