The availability of low-cost micro-electro-mechanical systems technology enables the development of wireless multimedia sensor networks (WMSNs), that is, networks of resource-constrained wireless devices that can retrieve content such as video and audio streams as well as scalar sensor data. The design of these networks depends significantly on the applications. Features such as environmental monitoring, target tracking, as well as the application’s design objectives, cost, and system constraints must be considered. In these types of applications, network nodes should ideally maximize the perceived quality of service and minimize energy expenditure. In recent years, extensive research has opened challenging ...
