Trio: enabling sustainable and scalable outdoor wireless sensor network deployments (2006, background): “PEG [18], LITeS [1], and ExScal [2,3] primarily followed a “ﬁll the bank” approach in which some power management existed but periodic battery replacement was an element of the operational strategy.”

Achieving Real-Time Target Tracking UsingWireless Sensor Networks (2006, methodology): “For example, the tracking system presented in [Arora et al. 2004] does not consider the power management, which makes the analytical results of Tinitial and Twakeup trivially zero, while other analytical results are still applicable.”
Design of a wireless sensor network platform for detecting rare, random, and ephemeral events (2005, background): “However, networks approaching only the low end of this scale have been demonstrated to date [5], [6].”
