Information Processing and Routing in Wireless Sensor Networks

This book presents state-of-the-art cross-layer optimization techniques for energy-efficient information processing and routing in wireless sensor networks. Besides providing a survey on this important research area, three specific topics are discussed in detail -- information processing in a collocated cluster, information transport over a tree substrate, and information routing for computationally intensive applications. The book covers several important system knobs for cross-layer optimization, including voltage scaling, rate adaptation, and tunable compression. By exploring tradeoffs of energy versus latency and computation versus communication using these knobs, significant energy conservation is achieved.Yu, Yang is the author of 'Information Processing and Routing in Wireless Sensor Networks ', published 2006 under ISBN 9789812701466 and ISBN 981270146X.
