This book constitutes the proceedings of the First International
ICST Conference, S-CUBE 2009, held in Pisa, Italy, in september
2009.
The 16 contributions published in this volume were carefully
selected from 45 submitted works in a rigorous peer-reviewed
process. In addition to this 3 distinguished researchers were asked
to contribute 3 invited papers.
The papers examine research challenges facing system development
and software support for wireless sensor networks (WSNs).
Currently, wireless sensor networks introduce innovative and
interesting application scenarios that may support a large amount
of different applications including environmental monitoring,
disaster prevention, building automation, object tracking, nuclear
reactor control, fire detection, agriculture, healthcare, and
traffic monitoring. The widespread acceptance of these new services
can be improved by the definition of frameworks and architectures
that have the potential to radically simplify software development
for wireless sensor network based applications. The aim of these
new architectures is to support flexible, scalable programming of
applications based on adaptive middleware. As a consequence, WSNs
require novel programming paradigms and technologies. Moreover the
design of new complex systems, characterized by the interaction of
different and heterogeneous resources, will allow the development
of innovative applications that meet high performance goals. Hence,
WSNs require contributions from many fields such as embedded
systems, distributed systems, data management, system security and
applications.
