A Group Management Scheme for Wireless Sensors' Networks.

Wireless Sensor Networks are used in situations where it becomes difficult to deploy and utilize networks with fixed infrastructure. Group Management within such network is an important challenge which is considered as a fundamental objective of such deployment. A good number of schemes have been proposed as a solution to this problem in the existing literature; however it is a well known fact that none of the existing schemes has fully addressed the group management issues. We have proposed a novel mechanism known as Cluster Based Group Management Scheme for Wireless Sensor Networks. Cluster Based Group Management Scheme (CBGMS) adopts an intermediate path in between the known solutions and additional novel features. It is important to mention that CBGMS not only provide a comprehensive Group Management solution but also addresses some of the known inter-related issues of Wireless Sensor Networks which is presented and explained in this paper.
