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 ...

Congestion control in wireless sensor networks based on the bird flocking behavior

Antoniou, Pavlos Ch.; Pitsillides, Andreas; Engelbrecht, A.; Blackwell, T.; Michael, Loizos (2009)

Recently, performance controlled wireless sensor networks have attracted significant interest with the emergence of mission-critical applications (e.g. health monitoring). Performance control can be carried out by robust ...

Recovering from the selective forwarding attack in WSNs - Enhancing the recovery benefits of blacklisting and rerouting using directional antennas

Stavrou, Eliana; Pitsillides, Andreas (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2014)

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) face a number of security challenges that can compromise their operation. A typical security attack that can be launched by an adversary, in order to affect the network's communication, is ...
