Topology Control (TC) is one of the most important techniques used in wireless ad hoc and
sensor networks to reduce energy consumption (which is essential to extend the network …

The wireless sensor network (WSN) technology spawns a surge of unforeseen applications.
The diversity of these emerging applications represents the great success of this technology …

Large-scale, self-organizing wireless sensor and mesh network deployments are being
driven by recent technological developments such as The Internet of Things (IoT), Smart …

Delineating the tremendous growth in this area, the Handbook of Approximation Algorithms
and Metaheuristics covers fundamental, theoretical topics as well as advanced, practical …

As the field of communications networks continues to evolve, the challenging area of
wireless sensor networks is rapidly coming of age. Recent advances have made it possible …

Current data networking technology limits a network's ability to adapt, often resulting in sub-
optimal performance. Limited in state, scope, and response mechanisms, the network …

We consider the problem of deploying or repairing a sensor network to guarantee a
specified level of multi-path connectivity (k-connectivity) between all nodes. Such a …

We propose an approach to topology control based on the principle of maintaining the
number of neighbors of every node equal to or slightly below a specific value k. The …

Topology control algorithms usually reduce the number of links in a wireless network, which
in turn decreases the degree of connectivity. The resulting network topology is more …
