A large-scale distributed wireless sensor network is composed of a large collection
of small low-power, unattended sensing devices equipped with limited memory,
processors, and short-range wireless communication. The network is capable of controlling
and monitoring ambient conditions, such as temperature, movement, sound,
light and others, and thus enable smart environments. Energy efficient data dissemination
is one of the fundamental services in large-scale wireless sensor networks.
Based on the study of the data dissemination problem, we propose two efficient data
dissemination schemes for two categories of applications in large-scale wireless sensor
networks. In addition, our schemes provide spatial-based multi-resolution data dissemination
for some applications to achieve further energy efficiency. Analysis and
simulation results are given to show the performance of our schemes in comparison
with current techniques.
