Abstract :
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) usually operate over long periods of deployment in places hard to be reached by human. Reprogrammability is essential to achieve flexible WSNs that have already been deployed in field and in use. Dissemination protocols are necessary for reprogramming a WSN. In this paper, we give a review on existing dissemination protocols for reprogramming WSNs, and discuss related research issues and trends in this area.
