Parasitic Mobility for Pervasive Sensor Networks

Distributed sensor networks offer many new capabilities for contextually monitoring environments. By making such systems mobile, the application-space is increased for the distributed network mainly by providing dynamic context-dependent deployment, continual relocatability, automatic node recovery, and a larger area of coverage. In existing models, the addition of actuation to the nodes has exacerbated three of the main problems with distributed systems: power usage, node size, and node complexity. This paper proposes a solution to these problems in the form of parasitically actuated nodes that harvest their mobility and local navigational intelligence by selectively engaging and disengaging from mobile hosts in their environment.
