Participants will emphasize the opportunities and challenges related to these sensor networks and their resultant information products, reflecting the complex interplays of social, technological, ...

Cost In the case of IEEE802.15.4 and ZigBee, the critical price for low end products will be sub $2 for a single chip solution that comprises microcontroller, transceiver, and on-chip memory. This is ...

This makes programming sensor networks simpler and faster. In WASP, one simply tells the system what to do, rather than how to complete the task, and the system sorts out the implementation ...

Hardware Challenges in Deploying a Wireless Sensor Network for Asphalt Monitoring The main objective of WSNs is to stay ahead of time-consuming and costly repairs through effective forecasting.
