Abstract:
The purpose of the data dissemination in wireless sensor networks is to send any type of information (data or
query) to all nodes concerned by this information, while minimizing the number of transmission nodes and the cost of energy.
Data dissemination is considered as a main phase of energy consumption in the communication of Wireless Sensor Networks.
Hence the way to eliminate redundant data traffic and reduce communication cost are the main challenges of the data
dissemination. Depending on how to collect data and process them, we can distinguish in this article the Client/Server based
data dissemination protocols, and the Mobile Agents protocols.
