	abstract = {This paper describes a new approach to build energy aware clusters for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN). The algorithm behind is based on the k-means method which is well known as a clustering technique and widely used in several fields of engineering and research. K-means clustering tends to find clusters of comparable spatial extent (density clustering). We try to enhance the clustering process by selecting nodes as clusters that are centric and have a high level of energy. This will give the same QoS results as given by the K-means approach with a reduction of energy consumption and a prolongation of the lifetime of the sensor network. For the simulation purposes, we have implemented our approach on the OLSR routing protocol which has been selected by our research team as a test bed routing protocol. We have compared our new approach (OLSR-Kmeans-Energy) with a previous work we developed and where we use a Max-Min heuristic (OLSR-MaxMin-Energy) to enhance QoS parameters and the lifetime of the WSN. Our new approach seems to give better results than the MaxMin approach.},

	abstract = {This paper proposes a new model for finding intelligent and reliable ferry routes using a continuous polling system to ensure a better transportation of messages between wireless nodes and the corresponding sink. We consider that the Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is composed by wireless static sensor nodes and several mobile ferries that collect information from all the sensors in the network. We have used a pure birth process to model the reliability aspect of the nodes in the network. We have considered several cases: with one ferry and N ferries moving in the same area. We have studied the impact of nodes density and the faulty rate occurrence to find the best and reliable path for the mobile ferry to cover all the nodes of the WSN.},

	abstract = {Probabilistic routing in wireless sensor network (WSNs) use the mobility history when making a forwarding decision. This type of routing provides a very rapid development and new perspectives in WSNs. However, there are several constraints and challenges to overcome the security problems. In this paper, we propose a security solution based on the RAID5 technology and a multi-path routing, to develop a protective mechanism against the various attacks in mobile WSNs. To demonstrate our concept, we have implemented this solution on Probabilistic Routing Protocol using History of Encounters and Transitivity (PRoPHET). We have compared our new protocol (PRoPHET-RAIP5) with standard PRoPHET to enhance security parameters.},

We present our mathematical model that combines parameters from network and MAC layers. We aim to estimate and to enhance the throughput of multi-hop WSNs and the stability of the forwarding queues used for real-time and best-effort traffics. We suppose at the first step that we have a wireless sensor network with a single sink then we suppose that we have the same wireless sensor network with two sinks. We study the impact of transmitting real-time and best-effort traffics on the system throughput; and we also study the impact of adding a second sink on the throughput.},
