    Recent developments in the area of micro-sensor devices have accelerated advances in the sensor networks field leading to many new protocols specifically designed for wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Wireless sensor networks with hundreds to thousands of sensor nodes can gather information from an unattended location and transmit the gathered data to a particular user, depending on the application. These sensor nodes have some constraints due to their limited energy, storage capacity and computing power. Data are routed from one node to other using different routing protocols. There are a number of routing protocols for wireless sensor networks. In this review article, we discuss the architecture of wireless sensor networks. Further, we categorize the routing protocols according to some key factors and summarize their mode of operation. Finally, we provide a comparative study on these various protocols

    Isu atau masalah rasuah menjadi topik utama sama ada di peringkat antarabangsa mahupun di peringkat dalam negara. Pertubuhan Bangsa- bangsa Bersatu menegaskan komitmen komuniti antarabangsa bertegas untuk mencegah dan mengawal rasuah melalui buku bertajuk United Nations Convention against Corruption. Hal yang sama berlaku di Malaysia. Melalui pernyataan visi oleh mantan Perdana Menteri Malaysia, Tun Dr. Mahathir bin Mohamed memberikan indikasi bahawa kerajaan Malaysia komited untuk mencapai aspirasi agar Malaysia dikenali kerana integriti dan bukannya rasuah. Justeru, tujuan penulisan bab ini adalah untuk membincangkan rasuah dari beberapa sudut termasuk perbincangan dari sudut agama Islam, faktor-faktor berlakunya gejala rasuah, dan usaha-usaha yang dijalankan di Malaysia untuk membanteras gejala rasuah. Perkara ini penting bagi mengenalpasti penjawat awam menanamkan keyakinan dalam melaksanakan tanggungjawab dengan menghindari diri daripada rasuah agar mereka sentiasa peka mengutamakan kepentingan awam

    In a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN), routing is the process of finding a cost-effective route in terms of power consumption. As an evaluation criterion for the WSN performance, network lifetime is directly affected by the routing method. In a wide variety of WSNs, different techniques are used as routing methods, such as shortest distance path. In this paper, we propose a novel algorithm, optimizing power consumption in WSN nodes, based on the shortest path algorithm. In this approach, the energy level of nodes and their geographical distance from each other contribute to the weight of the connecting path. The proposed algorithm is used as a data dissemination method in WSNs with randomly scattered nodes. We also apply Dijkstra’s shortest path algorithm to the same networks. The results showed that the proposed algorithm increases the network lifetime up to 30 % by preventing nodes with low charge levels from early disconnection

    WSNs has emerged as am important computing platform in the recent few years. Wireless Sensor Networks consists of a large number of sensor nodes, which are operated by a small battery. Sensor nodes can be deployed in the harsh environment. Once they are deployed, it becomes impossible to replace or recharge its battery. So the battery power of sensor node should be used efficiently. Many routing protocols has been proposed so far but they has not taken consideration of critical data. So we propose EECCPAR protocol which considers time critical data by using MAX threshold concept. Our protocol is better than PEGASIS protocol, this has been shown by simulation results
