Project ProposalProject ProposalOn“Reorganization of Sensor Nodesin OCO”Submitted To: Submitted By:Dr. Andrew Yang Aiyaz Amin Paniwala Saurav K Bengani University of Houston Clear LakeAbstract The Optimized Communication and Organization Algorithm has been designedto provide maximum possible coverage from a Wireless Sensor Network usingminimum resources. OCO has four phases: Position Collection, Tracking,Processing and Maintenance. During the tracking phase, one or more of the nodes may start to run out ofenergy. When that happens, the network becomes disconnected and unable tofulfill its mission of tracking intruders. To answer this challenge we have toperform some kind of maintenance in the network. The main part of this algorithmis as follows:- Local re-organization of border nodes- Local re-organization of forwarding nodes- Global re-organization The maintenance phase of OCO has been designed to take care of exhaustednodes, dead nodes, and repositioned nodes. The algorithm runs under differentconditions with respect to the change in the network topology such as:Case 1: The dead (or going to die) node is a forwarding node.Case 2: The dead (or going to die) node is a border node.Case 3: Several nodes in the network are
