As the field of communications networks continues to evolve, the
challenging area of wireless sensor networks is rapidly coming of
age. Recent advances have made it possible to make sensor
components more compact, robust, and energy efficient than ever,
earning the idiosyncratic alias of "Smart Dust." Production has
also improved, yielding larger, more cost-efficient quantities for
specialized telecommunications applications. However, network
designers and planners for emerging telecommunication networks face
specific challenges in finding the best way to integrate new
network-specific circuits with existing network systems.
The Handbook of Sensor Networks: Compact Wireless and Wired
Sensing Systems captures the current state of sensor networks and
deals with particular technical challenges such as software
protocols, data processing, security, and limited power sources for
remote sensors. Other topics include architecture, artificial
perception, location management, dynamic power management, data
funneling, and applications such as tracking, biological data
acquisition, industrial sensor networking, security measures, and
energy-saving techniques.
A selection of highly respected professionals and researchers
from leading institutions worldwide contribute their expertise to
assemble a referential set of 40 brand new, in-depth articles that
cover various aspects of sensor networks, from basic concepts to
research-grade material, including future directions.
