One of the main benefits of the smart grid will be the introduction of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) into the electricity grid at large scale. These DERs will be able to supply areas with electricity when isolated from the main power grid due to failure conditions or system/equipment failures. Although the integration of DER into the power grid makes the energy supply more reliable and reduces...
In multihop networks such as mobile ad hoc networks selfish or misbehaving nodes can degrade network performance. Reputation based models have been developed to enforce cooperation and to discourage node misbehaviour. These schemes detect and isolate selfish nodes and maintain network throughput by enabling nodes to construct paths that only include good nodes. In order to punish selfish nodes and...
One of the exigent problems in wireless sensor networks is the recognition of network boundary and the detection of holes within the network. In this paper, we propose an algorithm in which every node in the network self-detects whether it is a boundary node or an inner node by utilizing the available connectivity information and making no assumptions about the location awareness. The algorithm is...
