Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEvaluation of a New Device, Automated Shower head on Water Conservation in Bath ShowersM. Shamsi, G. H.S. BonjarIn cosmopolitan areas and big cities of the world, shortage of drinking water during the peaks of consumption hours is a noticeable problem. Many people may not have piped water during these critical hours especially in summer times. To minimize this problem, an electronic control valve was designed and developed which saved about 70% of water in each showering session … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2004 · 7,201 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDynamic Weighting Technique Based Arctic Puffin Optimization for Energy Efficient Data Transmission in Wireless Sensor NetworksM. Bharathraj Kumar, S. Avinash, Prakash G. Gani, Prathapchandra ShettyWireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are designed using various sensor nodes, which are employed for communication in diverse applications that include healthcare, industrial areas, and smart cities. Specifically, WSNs demand energy-efficient clustering and routing mechanisms that assist in extending network lifetime due to the limited battery capacity of sensor nodes. However, many existing meta-heuristic-based approaches incorporate fixed objective weights that struggle … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 9 · 10 Sep 2026 · 767 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsOptimized Wireless Sensor Network Clustering Using a Hybrid Firefly–Bat Algorithm (HFBA)J. Jegan, Senthil kumar P, S. Saravanakumar et al.Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are composed of numerous sensor nodes that collaborate to observe and evaluate various environmental parameters, transmitting the data to a central base station. Each node is equipped with a unique transmitter, receiver, and processor to facilitate sensing, processing, and communication. These networks are often installed in extremely remote and inaccessible areas. A significant challenge arises from … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 5 · 19 May 2026 · 1,431 accessesView PDF Cite

Case ReportOpen accessIn the keywordsLoad Balancing Technique Based on Broadcasting and Residual Energy Using Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy Protocol (LBEACH)Abdullah Soliman Alshraa, Venus Wazeer SamawiOne of the important factors of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) is sensors lifetime. Elongating sensors lifetime increases the benefits from the network capabilities as much as possible. To elongate WSNs lifetime, power consumption should be reduced. To do so, load balance technique is applied to distribute the energy consumption among cluster’s nodes in the WSN. In each cluster, the node … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 6 · 13 Oct 2015 · 6,610 accessesView PDF Cite
