Abstract

One of the major challenges in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) design lies in the constrained energy available to sensor nodes. Workforce selection strategies which unevenly consume sensor energy can reduce the lifetime of the network significantly. This work proposes and evaluates a new class of strategies that provides an energy efficient workforce management for WSNs. Analytical and simulation results demonstrate that the proposed approach significantly increases network lifetime by evenly consuming sensors power.
