@article{(Open Science Index):https://publications.waset.org/pdf/7795, title = {Energy Efficient Cooperative Caching in WSN}, author = {Narottam Chand}, country = {}, institution = {}, abstract = {Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) consist of number of tiny, low cost and low power sensor nodes to monitor some physical phenomenon. The major limitation in these networks is the use of non-rechargeable battery having limited power supply. The main cause of energy consumption in such networks is communication subsystem. This paper presents an energy efficient Cluster Cooperative Caching at Sensor (C3S) based upon grid type clustering. Sensor nodes belonging to the same cluster/grid form a cooperative cache system for the node since the cost for communication with them is low both in terms of energy consumption and message exchanges. The proposed scheme uses cache admission control and utility based data replacement policy to ensure that more useful data is retained in the local cache of a node. Simulation results demonstrate that C3S scheme performs better in various performance metrics than NICoCa which is existing cooperative caching protocol for WSNs.}, journal = {International Journal of Computer and Information Engineering}, volume = {7}, number = {5}, year = {2013}, pages = {665 - 670}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/7795}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/77}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 77, 2013}, }
