Presentation of "Desynchronization for Decentralized Medium Access Control based on Gauss-Seidel Iterations"

Abstract

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) - a network composed of nodes using a wireless medium in Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA). No centralized infrastructure - implies the need for a decentralized algorithm to perform desynchronization of transmission. Applicable to surveillance - a group of vigilant robots that want to periodically visit sites to be monitored
