| Abstract | A recent research thread focused on Unattended Wireless Sensor Networks (UWSNs), that are characterized by the intermittent presence of the sink. An adversary can take advantage of this behavior trying to erase a piece of information sensed by the network before the sink collects it. Therefore, without a mechanism in place to assure data availability, the sink will not ever know that a datum has been compromised. In this paper, we adopt data replication to assure data survivability in UWSNs. In particular, we revisit an epidemic model and show that, even if the data replication process can be modelled as the spreading of a disease in a finite population, new problems that have not been discovered before arise: optimal parameters choice for the model do not assure the intended data survivability. The problem is complicated by the fact that it is driven by two conflicting parameters: On the one hand the flooding of the datum has to be avoided---due to the sensor resource constraints---, while on the other hand data survivability depends on the data replication rate. Using advanced probabilistic tools we achieve a theoretically sound result that assures at the same time: Data survivability, an optimal usage of sensors resources, and a fast and predictable collecting time. These results have been achieved in both the full visibility and the geometrical model. Finally, extensive simulation results support our findings. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
