A main application of sensor networks are to monitor and to send information about a possibly hostile environment to a powerful base station connected to a wired network. To conserve power from each sensor, intermediate network nodes should aggregate results from individual sensors. However, it can make it that a single compromised sensor can render the network useless, or worse, mislead the operator into trusting a false reading. In this paper, we propose a protocol to give us a key aggregation mechanism that intermediate network nodes could aggregate data more safely. The proposed protocol is more helpful at multi-tier network architecture in secure sessions established between sensor nodes and gateways. From simulation study, we compare the amount of the energy consumption overhead, the time of key transmission and the ratio of of key process between the proposed method and LHA-SP. The simulation result of proposed protocol is low 3.5% a lord of energy consumption than LHA-SP, the time of key transmission and the ration of key process is get improved result of each 0.3% and 0.6% than LHA-SP.

Unlike wired networks, broadcasting in wireless networks can transmit data to several nodes at a time in a single transmission. The omnidirectional broadcasting of node in wireless networks simultaneously reaches all neighboring nodes. In this paper, we propose a greedy algorithm to solve the minimum power broadcasting problem that minimizes the total transmission power when broadcasting in wireless networks. The proposed algorithm uses a neighborhood list which is a set of nodes that can transmit messages within the maximum transmission range of each node, and among the transmitting nodes that have received the data, the node having the largest number of the neighboring nodes firstly transmits the data to neighboring node. The performance of the proposed algorithm was evaluated by computer simulation, and was compared with existing algorithms in terms of total transmission power and broadcasting frequency for broadcasting to all nodes. Experiment results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms the conventional algorithms.

Provincial boundary regions need differentiated strategies from non-provincial boundary regions because they form multilayered regional networks with boundary cites and provinces. This paper aims to analyze the attributions of provincial boundary regions' regional networks in the dimensions of commuters, companies, and government and to explore their political strategies. At commuters level, Okcheon, a case study area, forms the strongest regional networks with Daejeon and does not have any regional network with Honam region. At companies level, it forms the regional network with Daejeon, Gyeonggi, and Chungbuk, and with Daejeon(Donggu, Daedukgu), and Gyeonggi(Bucheon) at government level. This paper suggests the following conclusive policies. First, provincial boundary regions should be postulated as the new policy targets. Second, Population and Housing Census should be constructed pan-regionally as the base data of regional network studies. Lastly, cooperation system among local government of the provincial boundary regions should be constructed.

Unlike wired networks, broadcasting in wireless networks can transmit data at once to several nodes with a single transmission. For omnidirectional broadcast to a node in wireless networks, all adjacent nodes receive the data at the same time. In this paper, we propose a greedy algorithm to solve the minimum power broadcasting problem of minimizing the total transmit power on broadcasting in wireless networks. We apply two matrices to the proposed algorithm: one is a distance matrix that represents the distance between each node, the other is an adjacency matrix having the number of adjacency nodes. Among the nodes that receive the data, a node that has the greatest number of the adjacent node transmits data to neighbor preferential. We compare the performance of the proposed algorithm with random method through computer simulation in terms of transmitting power of nodes. Experiment results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms better than the random method.

Mobile ad-hoc network(MANET) can increase independence and flexibility of network because it consists of mobile node without the aid of fixed infrastructure. But, Because of unrestriction for the participation and breakaway of node, it has the difficulty in management and stability which is a basic function of network operation. Therefore, to solve those problems, we suggest a distributed weighted clustering algorithm from a manageable and stable point of view. The suggested algorithm uses distributed weighted clustering algorithm when it initially forms the cluster and uses a concept which is distributed gateway and sub-cluster head to reduce the re-clustering to the minimum which occurs mobile nodes after forming the cluster. For performance evaluation, We compare DCA and WCA with the suggested algorithm on the basis of initial overhead, resubscriber rate and a number of cluster.

With the development of the internet technology, network application services based on a large number of network nodes have been focused. However, such application services require much larger network size and traffic than current network. In order to develop them, efficient solutions as well as a simple improvement of network infra processing time are required. In this paper, to contribute a improvement of network computing technology, we design and implement the agent platform software based on the agent technology that performs works independently and asynchronously on a network and platform. The proposed agent platform software supports the scalability to accommodate the number of network hosts with rapid growth, the adaptability on a variable environments, and the availability for a fault-tolerance.

In Wireless Sensor Networks(WSNs), a sensor node broadcasts the acquisited sensing data to neighboring other nodes and it makes serious data duplication problem that increases network traffic loads and data loss. This problem is concerned with the conflict condition for supporting both the reliability of data transfer and avoidance of network congestion. To solve the problem, a reliable congestion control protocol is necessary that considers critical factors affecting on data transfer reliability such as reliable data transmission, wireless loss, and congestion loss for supporting effective congestion control in WSNs. In his paper, we proposes a reliable congestion protocol, called HRCCP, based on hop-hop sequence number, and DSbACK by minimizing useless data transfers as an energy-saved congestion control method.

Wireless sensor networks have recently emerged as a platform for several applications. By deploying wireless sensor nodes and constructing a sensor network, we can remotely obtain information about the behavior, conditions, and positions of objects in a region. Since sensor nodes operate on batteries, energy-efficient mechanisms for gathering sensor data are indispensable to prolong the lifetime of a sensor network as long as possible. In this paper, we propose a novel clustering algorithm that distributes the energy consumption of a cluster head. First, we analyze the energy consumption if cluster heads and divide each cluster into a collection layer and a transmission layer according to their roles. Then, we elect a cluster head for each layer to distribute the energy consumption of single cluster head. In order to show the superiority of our clustering algorithm, we compare it with the existing clustering algorithm in terms of the lifetime of the sensor network. As a result, our experimental results show that the proposed clustering algorithm achieves about $10%{\sim}40%$ performance improvements over the existing clustering algorithms.

Wireless sensor networks are sensing, computing, and communication infrastructures that allow us to sense events in the harsh environment. The networks consist of many deployed sensor nodes. Each sensor node senses and transmits the sensed data to the administrator or base station of the networks. The sensor nodes are generally remotely-deployed, and therefore, software update must be done at run-time via communication channel. The software code update protocol should be energy-efficient to maximize lifetime of the sensor nodes. In this paper, we present a MCUP, which is a multi-level code update protocol for resource-constrained sensor nodes. MCUP enables energy-efficient code update by supporting multi-level code management. Our simulation results show that MCUP can reduce energy consumption compared with the existing one-level code update schemes.
