2. 1. Improving Low-Power Wireless Protocols with Timing-Accurate Simulation

   Author : Fredrik Österlind; Thiemo Voigt; Adam Dunkels; Per Gunningberg; Tarek F. Abdelzaher; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Low-Power Wireless Protocols; Wireless Sensor Networks; Contiki; Cooja; Simulation; Datavetenskap med inriktning mot datorkommunikation; Computer Science with specialization in Computer Communication;

   Abstract : Low-power wireless technology enables numerous applications in areas from environmental monitoring and smart cities, to healthcare and recycling. But resource-constraints and the distributed nature of applications make low-power wireless networks difficult to develop and understand, resulting in increased development time, poor performance, software bugs, or even network failures.

4. 2. Measurements in opportunistic networks

   Author : Fredrik Bjurefors; Per Gunningberg; Christian Rohner; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Datavetenskap med inriktning mot datorkommunikation; Computer Science with specialization in Computer Communication;

   Abstract : Opportunistic networks are a subset of delay tolerant networks where the contacts are unscheduled. Such networks can be formed ad hoc by wireless devices, such as mobile phones and laptops. READ MORE

5. 3. Towards content distribution in opportunistic networks

   Author : Thabotharan Kathiravelu; Arnold Pears; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Datavetenskap med inriktning mot datorkommunikation; Computer Science with specialization in Computer Communication;

   Abstract : Opportunistic networking is a new communication paradigm. Content Distribution in opportunistic networks is challenging due to intermittent connectivity, short connection durations and a highly dynamic topology. Research is needed to develop new applications and protocols that can distribute content in opportunistic networks. READ MORE

6. 4. Query authentication and data confidentiality in wireless sensor networks

   Author : Ioana Rodhe; Christian Rohner; Per Gunningberg; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Datavetenskap med inriktning mot datorkommunikation; Computer Science with specialization in Computer Communication;

   Abstract : In this thesis we consider different aspects of security in sensor networks, in particular query authentication and confidential data aggregation. Authenticating the queries is important so attackers cannot modify existing queries because this would lead to wrong readings; or insert new queries into the network because this would lead to waste of energy.

7. 5. Experimental Challenges in Wireless Sensor Networks — Environment, Mobility, and Interference

   Author : Olof Rensfelt; Per Gunningberg; Torsten Braun; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wireless Sensor Networks; Testbed; Mobility; Interference classification; Datavetenskap med inriktning mot datorkommunikation; Computer Science with specialization in Computer Communication;

   Abstract : Wireless sensor networks are used to collect sensor data in different applications such as environmental monitoring, smart building control, and health care applications. Wireless sensor nodes used are typically small, low-cost, and battery powered. READ MORE
