Robust Distributed Reprogramming Protocol of Wireless Sensor Networks for Healthcare Systems

With the development of the wireless communication technologies, the wireless sensor networks (WSNs for short) are considered as one of the key research areas in healthcare systems. However, there is sometimes a need for removing bugs or adding new functionalities after WSNs are deployed. Wireless r...
