The coverage problem, as a fundamental problem for almost all types of applications in
wireless sensor networks (WSNs), has been studied for over a decade. Because of its …

Air pollution has become a major issue in the modern megalopolis because of industrial
emissions and increasing urbanization along with traffic jams and the heating/cooling of …

As the binary sensing model is a coarse approximation of reality, the probabilistic sensing
model has been proposed as a more realistic model for characterizing the sensing region. A …

The Efficient-Energy Coverage (EEC) problem is an important issue when implementing
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) because of the need to limit energy use. In this paper, we …

Abstract The self-sufficient Smart Grid (SG) with two-way data communication among its
constituents is proposed as a remedy to the shortcomings of the traditional power grid. Due …

Sensors in most wireless sensor networks (WSNs) work with batteries as their energy
source, it is usually infeasible to recharge or replace batteries when they discharge. Thus …

Over the last few years, a lot of applications have been developed for Vehicular Ad Hoc
NETworks (VANETs) to exchange information between vehicles. However, VANET is …

With the rapid growth of the internet of things (IoT), an impressive number of IoT's application
based on wireless sensor networks (WSNs) has been deployed in various domain. Due to …

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are widely used in environmental applications where the
aim is to sense physical phenomena, such as temperature and air pollution. A careful …
