Abstract :
Cyclic cellular automata (CCAs) have been found to provide a natural, beguilingly simple, and elegant infrastructure for the design of sensor systems with sleep-wake scheduling to maximize system lifetime. The Greenberg-Hastings model (GHMZ) defined on the integer lattice Z2 is particularly appropriate and is described in the paper.
