Hot spots in a wireless sensor network emerge as locations under heavy traffic load. Nodes such areas quickly deplete energy resources, leading to disruption services. This problem is common for data collection scenarios which Cluster Heads (CH) have burden of gathering and relaying information. The relay load on CHs especially intensifies the distance sink decreases. To balance consumption network, CH role should be rotated among all nodes cluster sizes carefully determined at different...

However, introduction or (CA) referred LTE 10, has required some changes from baseline 8 although each CC LTE-A...
Semantic modeling for the Internet of Things has become fundamental to resolve problem interoperability given distributed and heterogeneous nature "Things". Most current research primarily focused on devices resources while paid less attention access utilisation information generated by things. The idea that things are able expose standard service interfaces coincides with oriented computing more importantly, represents a scalable means business services applications need context awareness...
The requirements of analyzing heterogeneous data streams and detecting complex patterns in near real-time have raised the prospect event processing (CEP) for many Internet Things (IoT) applications.
