Abstract

In this paper, we present a family of adaptive protocols, called SPIN (Sensor Protocols for Information via Negotiation), that efficiently disseminates information among sensors in an energy-constrained wireless sensor network.Nodes running a SPIN communication protocol name their data using high-level data descriptors, called meta-data.They use meta-data negotiations to eliminate the transmission of redundant data throughout the network.In addition, SPIN nodes can base their communication decisions both upon application-specific knowledge of the data and upon knowledge of the resources that are available to them.This allows the sensors to efficiently distribute data given a limited energy supply.We simulate and analyze the performance of two specific SPIN protocols, comparing them to other possible approaches and a theoretically optimal protocol.We find that the SPIN protocols can deliver 60% more data for a given amount of energy than conventional approaches.We also find that, in terms of dissemination rate and energy usage, the SPlN protocols perform close to the theoretical optimum.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
