    [NT 15000229]: The data provided by a sensor node is often useful only in the context of the location of the data source. Thus, sensor networks rely on localization schemes to provide location information to sensor nodes. The premise of this thesis is that location-aware protocols, which are based on the assumption that sensor nodes can estimate their location, improve the efficiency of data gathering and resource utilization of wireless sensor networks. Location-awareness improves the energy-efficiency of the protocols needed for routing, transport, data dissemination and self-organization of sensor networks. In this thesis, we show how location information can be leveraged in novel ways in sensor network protocols to achieve energy efficiency. The contributions of this thesis are in four important areas related to network protocol design for wireless sensor networks: (1) self-organization; (2) data dissemination or node reprogramming; (3) service differentiation; and (4) data collection. Work on self-organization (SCARE) and data dissemination (LAF) was carried out from 2002 to 2004 and the work on service differentiation (SensiQoS) and data collection (HTDC) was carried out from 2004 to 2009.
