    Duyarga Ağları için Bir Γ Eşuyumcusu Tasarım ve Uygulaması
    (IEEE, 2008) Özsoyeller, Deniz; Erciyeş, Kayhan; Dağdeviren, Orhan
    Implementation of synchronous algorithms in distributed systems in general is less troublesome than the implementation of asynchronous algorithms. Synchronizers provide synchronous execution of an asynchronous algorithm in distributed systems. In this study, we propose a gamma synchronizer for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). This synchronizer consists of a and beta synchronizers. In our work, the WSN is first divided into clusters and then these clusters are connected using a ring protocol. Synchronization is provided using the beta synchronizer in the cluster and a synchronizer among the clusters. We describe the clustering algorithm and the ring formation algorithm for the WSNs and give the results obtained so far.

    Distributed Algorithms To Form Cluster Based Spanning Trees in Wireless Sensor Networks
    (Springer Verlag, 2008) Erciyeş, Kayhan; Özsoyeller, Deniz; Dağdeviren, Orhan
    We propose two algorithms to form spanning trees in sensor networks. The first algorithm forms hierarchical clusters of spanning trees with a given root, the sink. All of the nodes in the sensor network are then classified iteratively as subroot, intermediate or leaf nodes. At the end of this phase, the local spanning trees are formed, each having a unique subroot (clusterhead) node. The communication and data aggregation towards the sink by an ordinary node then is accomplished by sending data to the local subroot which routes data towards the sink. A modified version of the first algorithm is also provided which ensures that the obtained tree is a breadth-first search tree where a node can modify its parent to yield shorter distances to the root. Once the sub-spanning trees in the clusters are formed, a communication architecture such as a ring can be formed among the subroots. This hybrid architecture which provides co-existing spanning trees within clusters yields the necessary foundation for a two-level communication protocol in a sensor network as well as providing a structure for a higher level abstraction such as the γ synchronizer where communication between the clusters is performed using the ring similar to an α synchronizer and the intra cluster communication is accomplished using the sub-spanning trees as in the β synchronizers. We discuss the model along with the algorithms, compare them and comment on their performances.
