Theoretical Aspects of Distributed Computing in Sensor Networks (Monographs in Theoretical Computer Science. An EATCS Series)

Buy
Wireless ad hoc sensor networks have recently become a very active research subject as well as a topic of rapid technological progress and large-scale practical development and application activities. However, a solid foundational and theoretical background seems still necessary for sensor networking to achieve its full potential. The provision of relevant abstract modeling, novel algorithmic design, and analysis methodologies toward efficient and robust realizations of such very large, highly dynamic, complex, non-conventional networks is a challenging task for the theoretical computer science community (and that of distributed computing in particular).

Several models, algorithms, and interesting research results have already appeared, in specialized and generic theory journals, conferences and workshops. This book aims to reinforce the emergence of a critical mass of theoretical and algorithmic foundations by bringing together, for the first time in a systematic way, high-quality research contributions (invited book chapters) by leading experts worldwide relevant to important algorithmic and complexity-theoretic aspects of wireless sensor networks and related ad hoc network types.

The intended audience of this book includes researchers and advanced graduate students working on sensor networks and the broader areas of wireless networking and distributed computing, as well as practitioners in the relevant application domains interested to obtain a broader foundational perspective and insight. The book can also serve as a text for advanced university courses and research seminars.

The book is structured into eight themes covering respective common aspects, issues, and methodologies. This division is rather indicative; because of the inherent relations of different topics, layers, and problems, many chapters could be associated to more than one theme, and the themes themselves could have been chosen in a different manner. Still, we hope that the particular structure will be methodologically useful for the reader.

We now briefly describe each theme. The first one discusses characteristic challenges for distributed sensor networking; although the perspective stems from systems methodologies, the implications to algorithms and theory are relevant.

The second theme presents current abstract modeling proposals for sensor networks related to different layers (physical, network), diverse (yet highly related) aspects such as the topology management and mobility plane, as well as the important aspect of network coding.

Making the Impossible Possible: Leading Extraordinary Performance: The Rocky Flats Story
Making the Impossible Possible: Leading Extraordinary Performance: The Rocky Flats Story
The most contaminated nuclear plant in the country, Rocky Flats was an environmental disaster and the site of rampant worker unrest. Although it was estimated that it would take 70 years and $36 billion to clean up and close the facility, something stunning happened. Now on its way to becoming a wildlife refuge, the project is running 60 years...

Fw 200 Condor vs Atlantic Convoy: 1941-43 (Duel)

With the fall of France in 1940, Germany suddenly had the opportunity to strike at poorly guarded Allied convoys. The Luftwaffe pressed into service the Fw-200 Condor, a plane that had originally been designed as a civilian airliner and the first plane to fly non-stop from Berlin to New York in 1938. After various modifications, the Fw-200...

Surrogate Tissue Analysis: Genomic, Proteomic, and Metabolomic Approaches

Despite rapidly expanding interest in potential applications of surrogate tissue analysis and intense competition to identify and validate biomarkers in appropriate surrogate tissues, very few peer reviewed publications describing the use of this approach have appeared in the scientific press. One of the first publications on this topic,...
