Algorithmic Aspects of Wireless Sensor Networks

This book constitutes the reviewed proceedings of the Second International Workshop on Algorithmic Aspects of Wireless Sensor Networks, ALGOSENSORS 2006, held in Venice, Italy in July 2006, in association with ICALP 2006. Topics addressed are foundational and algorithmic aspects of the wireless sensor networks research. In particular, ALGOSENSORS focuses on abstract models, complexity-theoretic results and lower-bounds.
