A new dynamic weight clustering algorithm for wireless sensor networks (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Essa, A., Al-Dubai, A., Romdhani, I., & Eshaftri, M. (2016, May). A new dynamic weight clustering algorithm for wireless sensor networks. Presented at 1st EAI International Conference on Smart Grid Inspired Future Technologies (SmartGift 2016), Liverpool, England

Since sensor nodes have limited energy resources, prolonging network lifetime and improving scalability are essential elements in energy-efficient Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). Most existing approaches consider the residual energy of a single node... Read More about A new dynamic weight clustering algorithm for wireless sensor networks.

A New Weight based Rotating Clustering Scheme for WSNs (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Essa, A., Al-Dubai, A. Y., Romdhani, I., & Esriaftri, M. A. (2017, May). A New Weight based Rotating Clustering Scheme for WSNs. Presented at 2017 International Symposium on Networks, Computers and Communications (ISNCC)

Although energy efficiency in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) has been investigated widely, it is still a challenging dilemma. Clustering mechanisms are among the most widely recommended approaches to sustaining a network throughout its lifetime. Des... Read More about A New Weight based Rotating Clustering Scheme for WSNs.

BARBEI: a new adaptive battery aware and reliable beacon enabled technique for IEEE802.15.4 MAC. (2017)
Book Chapter
Salayma, M., Al-Dubai, A., Romdhani, I., & Yassein, M. B. (2017). BARBEI: a new adaptive battery aware and reliable beacon enabled technique for IEEE802.15.4 MAC. In M. Grzenda, J. Furtak, J. Legierski, & A. I. Awad (Eds.), Advances in Networking Systems Architectures, Security, and Applications (317-335). Springer

The IEEE 802.15.4 standard supports both physical and Media Access Con-trol (MAC) layers of low rate Wireless Sensor Network (WSNs). However, this stand-ard considers only the ideal linear power consumption, omitting the fact that the diffu-sion prin...
