TLDR
It is found that the SPIN protocols can deliver 60% more data for a given amount of energy than conventional approaches, and that, in terms of dissemination rate and energy usage, the SPlN protocols perform close to the theoretical optimum.
Abstract
In this paper, we present a family of adaptive protocols, called SPIN (Sensor Protocols for Information via Negotiation), that efficiently disseminates information among sensors in an energy-constrained wireless sensor network. Nodes running a SPIN communication protocol name their data using high-level data descriptors, called meta-data. They use meta-data negotiations to eliminate the transmission of redundant data throughout the network. In addition, SPIN nodes can base their communication decisions both upon application-specific knowledge of the data and upon knowledge of the resources that are available to them. This allows the sensors to efficiently distribute data given a limited energy supply. We simulate and analyze the performance of two specific SPIN protocols, comparing them to other possible approaches and a theoretically optimal protocol. We find that the SPIN protocols can deliver 60% more data for a given amount of energy than conventional approaches. We also find that, in terms of dissemination rate and energy usage, the SPlN protocols perform close to the theoretical optimum.

Approximating sensor network queries using in-network summaries

TL;DR: This work uses a model-based approach that constructs and maintains a spanning tree within the network, rooted at the basestation, based on a formal model of the in-network tree construction task framed as an optimization problem.

A protocol for data dissemination in frequently partitioned mobile ad hoc networks

TL;DR: A novel approach is presented which is based on a negotiation scheme enhanced by an adaptive repetition strategy which shows a reduction of data transfer volume compared to hyper-flooding by 30% to 40% even in the presence of frequent network partitions.

On the nature of Inter-Vehicle Communication

TL;DR: It is argued that applications for the communication between vehicles do not require the functionality typically offered by mobile ad-hoc-networks or wireless sensor networks, and the name Vehicular Ad-Hoc Network (VANET) is a misnomer leading practitioners and researchers astray.

Fault-Intrusion Tolerant Techniques in Wireless Sensor Networks

TL;DR: This paper studies state-of-the-art fault tolerance and intrusion tolerance techniques for WSN and proposes a new fault-intrusion tolerant routing mechanism called MVMP (multi-version multi-path) for W SN that will support highly reliable and secure sensor networks.

Highly dynamic Destination-Sequenced Distance-Vector routing (DSDV) for mobile computers

TL;DR: The modifications address some of the previous objections to the use of Bellman-Ford, related to the poor looping properties of such algorithms in the face of broken links and the resulting time dependent nature of the interconnection topology describing the links between the Mobile hosts.

Multicast routing in datagram internetworks and extended LANs

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors specify extensions to two common internetwork routing algorithms (distancevector routing and link-state routing) to support low-delay datagram multicasting beyond a single LAN, and discuss how the use of multicast scope control and hierarchical multicast routing allows the multicast service to scale up to large internetworks.
