Synopsis

Bulusu (computer science, Portland State University) and Jha (computer science, University of New South Wales, Australia) offer an in-depth understanding of wireless sensor networks from a systems perspective, in this book for students, researchers, and industry professionals. They describe and categorize the technological trends, leading applications, platform developments, and challenges of sensor networks. Chapters are in sections on core ideas, building blocks for low-level sensor network self-organization and operation, middleware to support sensor network applications, and case studies in areas such as animal habitat monitoring and defense. Contributions are by leading international researchers, several of whom initiated research on the problems they discuss. The book can serve as a text for an introductory sensor networking class at either the graduate or upper-division undergraduate level. Annotation ©2005 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

Présentation de l'éditeur

This first-of-its-kind resource offers you an in-depth understanding of wireless sensor networks from a systems perspective. The book describes and categorizes the technological trends, leading applications, state-of-the-art platform developments, future trends, and challenges of sensor networks. You find critical coverage of network protocols and mechanisms for node localization, time synchronization, media access control, topology creation and management, routing, transport, storage, security and fault tolerance, energy conservation and harvesting, and node deployment in large-scale sensor networks. What's more, this practical reference addresses middleware issues for sensor network applications and focuses on important application domains, showing you how specific applications influence the architectural design of networked systems. Contributions from leading international researchers and nearly 70 illustrations support key topics throughout the book.
