  • Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) require an enormous number of sensor nodes (SNs) to maintain processing, sensing, and communication capabilities for monitoring targeted sensing regions. SNs are generally operated by batteries and have a significantly restricted energy consumption; therefore, it is necessary to discover optimization techniques to enhance network lifetime by saving energy. The principal focus is on reducing the energy consumption of packet sharing (transmission and receiving) and improving the network lifespan. To achieve this objective, this paper presents a novel improved energy-efficient cluster-based routing protocol (IECRP) that aims to accomplish this by decreasing the energy consumption in data forwarding and receiving using a clustering technique. Doing so, we successfully increase node energy and network lifetime. In order to confirm the improvement of our algorithm, a simulation is done using matlab, in which analysis and simulation results show that the performance of the proposed algorithm is better than that of two well-known recent benchmarks.

  • Resorcinol formaldehyde resins are synthesized by polycondensation of resorcinol with formal-dehyde and have various structures by the condensation type. The influence of polycondensation type on the stability and structure of the resorcinol formaldehyde resin was studied by molecular mechanics and molecular dynamics. The resins formed by 2,6-polycondensation and 4,6-polycondensationwith head-to-tail orientations have structures of intramolecular hydrogen bonds between 1-hydroxyl groups and between outer hydroxyl groups of the adjacent resorcinols, respectively. The resin formed by 2,6-polycon-densation with head-to-head orientation has a structure that inner hydroxyl groups cluster in the center of the molecule. Energetical stability of the resin is affected by both the intramolecular hydrogen bonds and the steric' hindrance by phenyl group.

  • Recently, a lot of researches have been done to increase the life span of network using the energy efficient sensor node in WSN. In the WSN environment, we must use limited amount of energy and hardware. Therefore, it is necessary to design energy efficient communication protocol and use limited resources. Cluster based routing method such as LEACH and HEED get the energy efficient routing using data communication between cluster head and related member nodes. In this paper, we propose an energy efficient routing algorithm as well as performance result using simulation.

  • This paper proposes a privacy-preserving aggregation scheme based on the designed P-Gene (PAPG) for sensor networks. The P-Gene is constructed using the designed erasable data-hiding technique. In this P-Gene, each sensory data item may be hidden by the collecting sensor node, thereby protecting the privacy of this data item. Thereafter, the hidden data can be directly reported to the cluster head that aggregates the data. The aggregation result can then be recovered from the hidden data in the cluster head. The designed P-Genes can protect the privacy of each data item without additional data exchange or encryption. Given the flexible generation of the P-Genes, the proposed PAPG scheme adapts to dynamically changing reporting nodes. Apart from its favorable resistance to data loss, the extensive analyses and simulations demonstrate how the PAPG scheme efficiently preserves privacy while consuming less communication and computational overheads.

  • Wireless Sensor Networks(WSN) make use of low cost and energy constrained sensor nodes. Thus, reaching the successful execution of its tasks with low energy consumption is one of the most important issues. The limitation of existing hierarchical algorithms is that many times the data are transmitted to the opposite direction to the sink. In this paper, DDACM (Data Direction Aware Clustering Method) is proposed. In this method, the nearest node to the sink is elected as cluster head, and when its energy level reaches a threshold value, the cluster head is reelected. We also make a comparison with LEACH showing how this method can reduce the energy consumption minimizing the reverse direction data transmission.

  • A lot of researches have been done to improve the energy efficiency of Wireless Sensor Networks. But all the current researches are based on the idea of direct communication between cluster head and sink node. Previous results assume that node can intelligently regulate signal energy according to the distance between nodes. It is difficult to implement algorithms based on this assumption. We present a multi-level routing algorithm from the sink node to all other nodes which have fixed radio wave radius. We also show the energy saving efficiency and the implementation in real WSN using the simulation result.

  • A Fortran program was developed to determine the optimal locations of an artificial recharge well. Three objective functions were considered: (1) maximizing the recovery rates, (2) maximizing the injection rates, and (3) minimizing the coefficient of variation of the increased pumping rates. We also suggested a new aggregate objective function which combined the first and the third objective functions. The model results showed that locating the injection well inside the cluster of pumping wells was desirable if either the recovery or the injection rate was taken into account. However, the injection well located outside the cluster evenly increased the pumping rates in existing pumping wells. Therefore, for clustered pumping wells, installing an injection well at the center or the upstream of the pumping wells seems beneficial. For linear arrangement of pumping wells parallel to the constant head boundary, locating the injection well in the upstream was recommended. On the contrary, in case of the linear arrangement perpendicular to the constant head boundary, the injection well installed on both sides of the central part of the pumping wells was preferable.

  • Soft faults are inherent in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) due to external and internal errors. The failure of processes in a protocol stack are caused by errors on various layers. In this work, impact of errors and channel misbehavior on process execution is investigated to provide an error classification mechanism. Considering implementation of WSN protocol stack, inter-process correlations of stacked and peer layer processes are modeled. The proposed model is realized through local and global decision trees for fault diagnosis. A hybrid framework is proposed to implement local decision tree on sensor nodes and global decision tree on diagnostic cluster head. Local decision tree is employed to diagnose critical failures due to errors in stacked processes at node level. Global decision tree, diagnoses critical failures due to errors in peer layer processes at network level. The proposed model has been analyzed using fault tree analysis. The framework implementation has been done in Castalia. Simulation results validate the inter-process correlation model-based fault diagnosis. The hybrid framework distributes processing load on sensor nodes and diagnostic cluster head in a decentralized way, reducing communication overhead.
