Wireless sensor networks are widely used today in environmental and home applications. Among these applications are some that require a bounded end-to-end delay since a delay may render some detected information useless or even causes damages in some critical applications. In this context we study the effect of anycast in the minimization of the end-to-end delay and we validate the study by simulations. We also propose a mobile base station technique with limited residence time to avoid the loss of time in data collection. We validate the work with a formulation in linear programming and numerical experiences.

借助传感器网络中的任意播和受控移动性，将端到端延迟降至最低

如今，无线传感器网络已广泛用于环境和家庭应用中。在这些应用中，有些需要有一定的端到端延迟，因为延迟可能会使某些检测到的信息无用，甚至在某些关键应用中造成损害。在这种情况下，我们研究了任意播对最小化端到端延迟的影响，并通过仿真验证了该研究。我们还提出了一种驻留时间有限的移动基站技术，以避免浪费数据收集时间。我们使用线性规划和数值经验中的公式来验证工作。
