Applying swarm intelligence to a novel congestion control approach for wireless sensor networks
Antoniou, Pavlos Ch.; Pitsillides, Andreas; Engelbrecht, A.; Blackwell, T.; Michael, Loizos (2011)Recently, sensor networks have attracted significant research interest. However, most studies have mainly focused on protocols for applications in which network performance assurances are not considered essential. With the ...

Congestion control in wireless sensor networks based on bird flocking behavior
Antoniou, Pavlos Ch.; Pitsillides, Andreas; Blackwell, T.; Engelbrecht, A.; Michael, Loizos (2013)This paper proposes that the flocking behavior of birds can guide the design of a robust, scalable and self-adaptive congestion control protocol in the context of wireless sensor networks (WSNs). The proposed approach ...

Employing the flocking behavior of birds for controlling congestion in autonomous decentralized networks
Antoniou, Pavlos Ch.; Pitsillides, Andreas; Blackwell, T.; Engelbrecht, A. (2009)Recently a great emphasis has been given on autonomous decentralized networks (ADNs) wherein constituent nodes carry out specific tasks collectively. Their dynamic and constrained nature along with the emerging need for ...

Mimicking the bird flocking behavior for controlling congestion in sensor networks
Antoniou, Pavlos Ch.; Pitsillides, Andreas; Engelbrecht, A.; Blackwell, T. (2010)This study deals with the problem of congestion in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) and proposes a robust and self-adaptable nature-inspired congestion control approach for realtime event-based applications. WSNs face ...
