  abstract =     {We consider the problem of constructing efficient P2P overlays for sensornets providing
                    "Energy-Level Application and Services". In this context, assuming that a sensor is
                    responsible for executing some program task but unfortunately it's energy-level is lower
                    than a pre-defined threshold. Then, this sensor should be able to introduce a query to
                    the whole system in order to discover efficiently another sensor with the desired energy
                    level, in which the task overhead must be eventually forwarded. In this way, the
                    "Life-Expectancy" of the whole network could be increased. Sensor nodes are mapped to
                    peers based on their energy level. As the energy levels change, the sensor nodes would
                    have to move from one peer to another and this operation is very crucial for the efficient
                    scalability of the proposed system. Similarly, as the energy level of a sensor node
                    becomes extremely low, that node may want to forward it’s task to another node with the
                    desired energy level. The method presented in [10] presents a novel P2P overlay for
                    Energy Level discovery in a sensornet. However, this solution is not dynamic, since
                    requires periodical restructuring. In particular, it is not able to support neither
                    join of sensor nodes with energy level out of the ranges supported by the existing p2p
                    overlay nor leave of empty overlay peers to which no sensor nodes are currently associated.
                    On this purpose and based on the efficient P2P method presented in [11], we design a dynamic
                    P2P overlay for Energy Level discovery in a sensornet, the so-called SART (Sensors'
                    Autonomous Range Tree). The adaptation of the P2P index presented in [11] guarantees
                    the best-known dynamic query performance of the above operation. We experimentally verify
                    this performance, via the D-P2P-Sim simulator.},
