Traditional distance vector routing and efficient flooding-based routing can be considered the two ends of the routing continuum in wireless sensor networks. The former uses a graph metaphor to find the best paths between the end-points in a network. The latter does away with proactive paths and instead uses efficient flooding to reach the destinations efficiently and quickly. In this talk, I will describe these two types of routing systems I have worked on. I will share how deployment experiences shaped the design of these systems and led to the emergence of network systems that combine these two philosophies.
