Localization in wireless sensor networks: Classification and evaluation of techniques

Ewa Niewiadomska-Szynkiewicz (2012)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

Recent advances in technology have enabled the development of low cost, low power and multi functional wireless sensing devices. These devices are networked through setting up a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN). Sensors that form a WSN are expected to be remotely deployed in large numbers and to self-organize to perform distributed sensing and acting tasks. WSNs are growing rapidly in both size and complexity, and it is becoming increasingly difficult to develop and investigate such large...

Optimization schemes for wireless sensor network localization

Ewa Niewiadomska-Szynkiewicz, Michał Marks (2009)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

Many applications of wireless sensor networks (WSN) require information about the geographical location of each sensor node. Self-organization and localization capabilities are one of the most important requirements in sensor networks. This paper provides an overview of centralized distance-based algorithms for estimating the positions of nodes in a sensor network. We discuss and compare three approaches: semidefinite programming, simulated annealing and two-phase stochastic optimization-a...

Heuristic algorithms for optimization of task allocation and result distribution in peer-to-peer computing systems

Grzegorz Chmaj, Krzysztof Walkowiak, Michał Tarnawski, Michał Kucharzak (2012)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

Recently, distributed computing system have been gaining much attention due to a growing demand for various kinds of effective computations in both industry and academia. In this paper, we focus on Peer-to-Peer (P2P) computing systems, also called public-resource computing systems or global computing systems. P2P computing systems, contrary to grids, use personal computers and other relatively simple electronic equipment (e.g., the PlayStation console) to process sophisticated computational...

Combination of mobile agent and evolutionary algorithm to optimize the client transport services

Hayfa Zgaya, Slim Hammadi, Khaled Ghédira (2008)

RAIRO - Operations Research

Similarity:

This paper presents a migration strategy for a set of mobile agents (MAs) in order to satisfy customers' requests in a transport network, through a multimodal information system. In this context, we propose an optimization solution which operates on two levels. The first one aims to constitute a set of MAs building their routes, called Workplans. At this level, Workplans must incorporate all nodes, representing information providers in the multimodal network, in order to explore it...
