In this paper, we tackle the challenge of rapidly disseminating rare events through a multi-hop network, while achieving unprecedented energy-efficiency. Contrary to state-of-the-art approaches, we circumvent the undesirable trade-offs associated with ...

In addition to unicast routing, most wireless multi-hop networks also need network-wide broadcasting. In this paper, we investigate Blind Flooding and two different types of optimized flooding protocols: Counter-Based Broadcasting (CBB) and a neighbor ...

Intended for network-wide dissemination of commands, configurations and code binaries, flooding has been investigated extensively in wireless networks. However, little work has yet been done on low-duty-cycle wireless sensor networks in which nodes stay ...
