An Efficient Method for Collecting Spatio-Temporal Data in the WSN Using Mobile Sinks

The article is a concise presentation of the results of the research in the area of increasing the efficiency of energy consumption for the process of collecting spatio-temporal data with the wireless geosensor networks. Energy saving is a very significant consideration in the design of those systems, since geosensors used for environmental monitoring have limited possibilities for recharge of the batteries. The proposed approach allows increasing the lifetime of wireless geosensor networks by optimizing the relocation of mobile sinks.
