Self-organising Sensor networks

چکیده
Sensor Networks [6, 5] consist of a large number of low-cost low-power devices, each with sufficient hardware to monitor one or more variables and send and receive the readings for these variables to other devices. Wireless sensor networks are becoming a powerful tool for monitoring a range of diverse situations [3, 8]. While the devices themselves are mostly still in the prototype stage [7] the theory surrounding these devices is a fast moving area of research. Ad-Hoc networks are a collection of mobile devices with wireless networking capability that may form a temporary peer to peer, multi-hop network without the aid of any established infrastructure or centralised administration. Sensor networks typically make use of ad-hoc networking, but normally lack the processing power to utilize the full richness of many proposed ad-hoc network protocols.

Self-organisation in Wireless Sensor Networks for Assisted Living
This paper introduces a framework for designing self-organising wireless sensor networks for assisted living. The topology of these networks is studied and definition of self-organisation is given. Here, we propose paradigms and explain “local” and “global” network properties. In conclusion, the self-organised network function for the wireless health-care networks is designed. Simulation result...
متن کاملSelf Organising Wireless Sensor Networks as a Land Management Tool in Developing Countries: A Preliminary Survey
This study is partly motivated by the conditions in developing nations, especially those in Africa where food consumption exceeded domestic production by 30% in the mid 90s and where 70% of the population live on farming. This production deficit which appears to be growing co-exists with a large segment of the population working in agriculture. What can self organising wireless sensor networks ...
متن کاملWireless Sensor Networks in the Context of Developing Countries
Wireless sensor networks are a network of small sensing devices which collaborate with each other to gather, process and communicate over wireless channel information about some physical phenomena. These self-organising, highly robust and energy efficient networks can be excellent sentinels for monitoring underground mining, wildlife and various physical infrastructures such as bridges, pipelin...
متن کاملLearning robot actions based on self-organising language memory
In the MirrorBot project we examine perceptual processes using models of cortical assemblies and mirror neurons to explore the emergence of semantic representations of actions, percepts and concepts in a neural robot. The hypothesis under investigation is whether a neural model will produce a life-like perception system for actions. In this context we focus in this paper on how instructions for...
متن کاملA Self-Reconstructing Algorithm for Single and Multiple-Sensor Fault Isolation Based on Auto-Associative Neural Networks
Recently different approaches have been developed in the field of sensor fault diagnostics based on Auto-Associative Neural Network (AANN). In this paper we present a novel algorithm called Self reconstructing Auto-Associative Neural Network (S-AANN) which is able to detect and isolate single faulty sensor via reconstruction. We have also extended the algorithm to be applicable in multiple faul...
متن کاملDistributed self-tuning of sensor networks
This work is motivated by the need for an ad hoc sensor network to autonomously optimise its performance for given task objective and constraints. Arguing that communication is the main bottleneck for distributed computation in a sensor network we formulate two approaches for optimisation of computing rates. The first is a team problem for maximising the minimum communication throughput of sens...
