1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Efficient data aggregation is crucial for mobile wireless sensor networks, as their resources are significantly constrained. Over recent years, the average consensus algorithm has found a wide application in this technology. In this paper, we present a weight matrix simplifying the average consensus algorithm over mobile wireless sensor networks, thereby prolonging the network lifetime as well as ensuring the proper operation of the algorithm. Our contribution results from the theorem stating how the Laplacian spectrum of an undirected simple finite graph changes in the case of adding an arbitrary edge into this graph. We identify that the mixing parameter of Best Constant weights of a complete finite graph with an arbitrary order ensures the convergence in time-varying topologies without any reconfiguration of the edge weights. The presented theorems and lemmas are verified over evolving graphs with various parameters, whereby it is demonstrated that our approach ensures the convergence of the average consensus algorithm over mobile wireless sensor networks in spite of no edge reconfiguration.
