A Context-Aware Data Forwarding Algorithm for Sensor Networks
Overview Recent advances in wireless communication and technologies have given rise to low-cost sensor networks. Sensor networks comprise of low-cost, low-power nodes that are densely deployed in the environment to monitor a specific state of the environment, for example: temperature, light, sound, speed or radiation. This paper presents a new data forwarding algorithm for sensor networks that takes into consideration the direction of the message, the positional relevance of a node to the message and the available power at that node.
