Course Project You are supposed to read some state of the art papers in the field of your research project and write a technical report about it. Your paper should be selected from the prestigious conferences Like Sensys, IPSN It should be recently published (3 years old at most) You may need to do a forward and backward search You should use a simulator (TOSSIM, OPNet, NS2, etc) to perform your projects.

Course Evaluation: Grading Final exam: 60% Project: 20% Midterm: 20% 2 Points will be added for accepted paper
