  • In wireless sensor network, since each sensor is equipped with a limited power, efficient use of the energy is important. One possible network management scheme is to cluster the sensors into several sets, so that the sensors in each of the sets can completely perform the monitoring task. Then the sensors in one set become active to perform the monitoring task and the rest of the sensors switch to a sleep state to save energy. Therefore, we rotate the roles of the active set among the sensors to maximize the network lifetime. In this paper, we suggest an optimal algorithm for the maximum lifetime coverage problem which maximizes the network lifetime. For comparison, we implemented both the heuristic proposed earlier and our algorithm, and executed computational experiments. Our algorithm outperformed the heuristic concerning the obtained network lifetimes, and it found the solutions in a reasonable amount of time.

  • 방향센서네트워크에서 주어진 모든 타켓을 관측하고 관측한 데이터를 싱크노드까지 전달한다는 요구사항을 유지하면서 에너지를 효율적으로 절약하여 전체 네트워크 수명을 최대화하는 것은 중요한 문제이다. 본 논문에서는 이와 관련하여 Maximum Directional Cover Tree(MDCT) 문제를 제시하고 방향센서들을 그룹화하여 네트워크 수명을 최대화하는 문제를 다룬다. 모든 타켓을 관측하고 관측한 데이터를 싱크노드까지 전달하는데 참여하는 센서들을 활성상태로 설정하고 그렇지 않은 센서들은 수면상태로 설정함으로써 에너지를 효율적으로 활용할 수 있는 휴리스틱 알고리즘인 Directional Coverage and Connectivity (DCC)-greedy 알고리즘을 제시하여 MDCT문제를 해결한다. 제안 알고리즘에서는 타켓을 관측하고 관측한 데이터 전달에 드는 에너지 외에 방향 회전에너지까지 고려함으로써 방향센서가 소비하는 에너지를 좀 더 정확하게 고려한다 마지막으로 시뮬레이션을 통해 제안 알고리즘이 네트워크 수명을 증가시킬 수 있음을 보인다.

  • This paper proposes a novel Random Scheduling Algorithm based on Subregion Coverage (RSASC), to solve the SET K-cover problem (an NP-complete problem). SET K-cover problem distributes the set of sensors into the maximum number of mutually exclusive subsets (MESSs) in such a way that each of them can be scheduled for lifetime extension of WSN. Sensor coverage divides the target region into different subregions. RSASC first sorts the subregions in the ascending order concerning their sensor coverage. Then, it forms the subregion groups according to their similar sensor coverage. Lastly, RSASC ensures the K-coverage of each subregion from every group by randomly scheduling the sensors. We consider the target-coverage and area-coverage applications of WSN to analyze the usefulness of our proposed RSASC algorithm. The distinct quality of RSASC is that it utilizes less number of deployed sensors (33% less) to form the optimum number of MESSs with the higher computational speed (saves more than 93% of the time) as compared to the existing three algorithms.

  • 가변감지범위를 갖는 무선센서네트워크의 수명연장을 위한 센서 노드의 전원 관리에서 요구되는 최대집합 커버문제를 유전자알고리즘을 이용하여 해결하였다. 기존의 경험적 탐용법(greedy heuristic method)에서는 네트워크의 동작 중 스케줄링을 반복 수행하므로 센서노드의 통신량이 증가한다. 제안한 방법에는 센서 노드의 통신 트래픽을 감소시켜 노드의 에너지 소모를 절약하여 네트워크의 수명을 연장하였다. 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통해 제안한 방법의 유효성을 확인했으며 통신동작의 에너지 소모를 고려할 때 네트워크의 수명 이 약 10% 증가하였다.

  • The estimation problem of expected time to failure of units is studied in a discrete set up. A simple step-stress accelerated life testing is considered with a Type-I censored sample from geometric distribution that is a commonly used distribution to model the lifetime of a device in discrete case. Maximum likelihood estimators as well as the associated distributions are derived. Exact, approximate and bootstrap approaches construct confidence intervals that are compared via a simulation study. Optimal confidence intervals are suggested in view of the expected width and coverage probability criteria. An illustrative example is also presented to explain the results of the paper. Finally, some conclusions are stated.
