Abstract: Distributed sensor environments are emerging as a feasible solution to a wide range of data collection applications. However, energy constraints on sensor nodes, which are usually powered by batteries, hinder the successful deployment of such networks. We present an adaptive middleware framework for energy aware information collection in sensor networks that ensures overall application quality while reducing communication overhead. 1.
