N2 - The terrorist attacks on the World Trade
Center and the Pentagon on September 11, 2001 have
drawn attention to the use of wireless technology in order
to locate survivors of structural collapse. We propose to
construct an ad hoc network of wireless smart badges in
order to acquire information from trapped survivors. We
investigate the energy efficient routing problem that arises
in such a network and show that since smart badges have
very limited power sources and very low data rates, which
may be inadequate in an emergency situation, the solution
of the routing problem requires new protocols. The problem
is formulated as an anycast routing problem in which
the objective is to maximize the time until the first battery
drains-out. Then, we present two methodologies that can
be used in order to develop distributed protocols for obtaining
the optimal solution of the problem.
