  • Abstract
    New algorithms are presented to optimally place storage nodes in a sensor network consisting of a path so as to minimize the communication cost of convergecasting towards the sink the data gathered into storage nodes in reply to queries. Such algorithms are faster than previously known algorithms and require optimal running time for finding the optimal storage placement.
