    Energy efficient network architecture for IoT applications
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2016) Sarwesh, P.; V.Shet, V.S.N.; Chandrasekaran, K.
    Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) and low power smart device network (Internet of Things) are fast growing technologies used in wide range applications. In IoT nodes are defined as sensor/actuators, which are highly constrained in nature (limited in energy and CPU usage). Designing energy efficient network architecture and routing mechanism is a great challenge in IoT networks. The network is said as energy efficient, based on node survivability. In this paper, energy efficient network architecture is proposed to prolong the network lifetime. Sensor nodes and relay nodes are placed in hierarchical manner to avoid uneven energy drainage (energy hole problem). In proposed architecture, sensors do sensing and relay nodes handle communication (data transmission from sensor to sink), which reduce the complexity of device. Relay node placement is done based on data traffic of the network. Energy efficient routing mechanism is implemented in proposed architecture to achieve balanced energy consumption. In our results, uniform energy consumption and better network lifetime is obtained. © 2015 IEEE.

    Optimal placement of sensor nodes for water quality measurement
    (IEEE Computer Society, 2017) Arun, D.; Pais, A.R.
    One among seven in this world dont have the luxory to have safe drinking water. As water is an essential component, ensuring the safety is very important. Providing a feasible method which is reliable and easy to deploy will help in understanding the quality of water which is used. Using wireless sensor nodes for detecting the water quality is a good option for this problem as sensor nodes are considered cheap, robust and easy to deploy. This paper designs an efficient algorithms for the placement of wireless sensor nodes which will do the purpose of water quality monitoring. National Institute of Technology, Surathkal campus has been taken as the case study for analysis. © 2015 IEEE
