Citizens Sensor Networks

2013
This introductory paper serves as an overview about the rest of the papers that are contained within this volume. In this article it is presented our vision of the Citizen Sensor Networks as twofold: one where the citizens are passive entities that need to be tracked to understand and optimize better the SmartCities, and the second where the citizens ...

On training a sensor network

Proceedings International Parallel and Distributed Processing Symposium, 2004
The networks considered in this paper consist of tiny energy constrained commodity sensors massively deployed, along with one or more sink nodes providing interface to the outside world. Our contribution is to propose a scalable energy-efficient training protocol for nodes that are initially anonymous, asynchronous and unaware of their locations ...

Geometry of a Sensor Networks

2013
Given a set of sensors or cluster of sensors S located at different points or nodes in the ordinary space. Any sensor measures one or more values, such as Temperature. We assume that the information from all sensors at different positions in the space is transmitted to a Gateway node as a probabilistic phenomena, not in a deterministic way.

StreamDB Sensor Networks

2012 IEEE 24th International Conference on Tools with Artificial Intelligence, 2012
StreamDB is a stream-based configuration approach for sensor-device data handling in wireless sensor networks (wsn). The stream model allows users to define how motes will store, process and communicate data with no complex programming. This extends existing stream models by bringing streams into the motes themselves and allowing users to define ...

A wake-on sensor network

Proceedings of the 7th ACM Conference on Embedded Networked Sensor Systems, 2009
This paper present a wake-on sensor network formed with the wake-on motes, TelosW. Our wake-on hardware and software design enable lower power operations and longer network lifetime.

Sensor networks in Telecare

Proceedings of the 4th workshop on Embedded networked sensors, 2007
This paper discusses the results obtained from a sensor network installed in a person's home as part of a twelve month Telecare trial. The aim of the trial was to unobtrusively collect data to detect changes in a person's daily activity (washing, eating, watching television etc.) around a home, using a low power/cost sensor network.

Wireless Sensor Networks

Computer, 2007
The confluence of inexpensive wireless communication, computation, and sensing has created a new generation of smart devices. Using tens to thousands of these devices in self-organizing networks has created a new technology referred to as wireless sensor networks. This article gives an overview of the wireless sensor networks.

Networking Wireless Sensors

2005
Wireless sensor networks promise an unprecedented fine-grained interface between the virtual and physical worlds. They are one of the most rapidly developing information technologies, with applications in a wide range of fields including industrial process control, security and surveillance, environmental sensing, and structural health monitoring ...

Nomadic sensor networks

Proceeedings of the Second European Workshop on Wireless Sensor Networks, 2005., 2005
Wireless sensor networks (WSN) have been investigated in their various forms over the last years as they are considered to be a major step towards pervasive computing. Nevertheless, except for military applications WSNs can be found only as 'proof of concept'.
