Application and Multidisciplinary Aspects of Wireless Sensor Networks: Concepts, Integration, and Case Studies by Liljana GavrilovskaEnglish | PDF | 2011 | 279 Pages | ISBN : 1849965099 | 7.9 MB
It is a general trend in computing that computers are becoming ever smaller and more interconnected, and sensor networks - large networks of small, simple devices - represent a logical extreme of this trend. Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are attracting an increasing degree of research interest, with a growing number of industrial applications starting to emerge. Two of these applications, personal health monitoring and emergency/disaster recovery, are the focus of the European Commission project ProSense: Promote, Mobilize, Reinforce and Integrate Wireless Sensor Networking Research and Researchers.
