Topology control is fundamental to solving scalability and capacity problems in large-scale wireless ad hoc and sensor networks.  Forthcoming wireless multi-hop networks such as ad hoc and sensor networks will allow network nodes to control the communication topology by choosing their transmitting ranges. Briefly, "topology control (TC) is the art of co-ordinating nodes’ decisions regarding their transmitting ranges, to generate a network with the desired features.  Building an optimized network topology helps surpass the prevalent scalability and capacity problems. "Topology Control in Wireless Ad Hoc and Sensor Networks makes the case for topology control and provides an exhaustive…
