Title
Railroad: virtual infrastructure for data dissemination in wireless sensor networks
Abstract
In this paper, we present Railroad, a data dissemination architecture for large-scale wireless sensor networks. Railroad system proactively exploits a virtual infrastructure called Rail, which is an area where all the metadata of event data are stored. There is only one Rail in the network and it acts as a rendezvous area of the events and the queries. Rail is placed in the middle area of the field so that every node can easily access it. Once a query is issued, it circulates around Rail and searches relevant data stored in Rail. When a relevant metadata is found, the source node of the data transmits the corresponding data to the sink node which has issued the query. By using Rail, Railroad achieves a scalable and energy-efficient data dissemination architecture under dynamic conditions with multiple mobile observers and targets. We evaluate and compare the communication cost and the hot spot message complexity of Railroad with previous approaches.
