| Description: |
"Sensor networks are becoming an integral part of our society to meet some common needs such as healthcare, and smart energy use. The success of any enterprise depends upon how fast it can deal with its operations and optimize performance. This handbook is designed for anyone who deals with or intends to become involved with the field of sensor networks. "-- |
| Synopsis: |
Recent advances in technology and manufacturing have made it possible to create small, powerful, energy-efficient, cost-effective sensor nodes for specialized telecommunication applications-nodes "smart" enough to be capable of adaptation, self-awareness, and self-organization.Sensor Networks for Sustainable Development examines sensor network technologies that increase the quality of human life and encourage societal progress with minimal effect on the earth's natural resources and environment. Organized as a collection of articles authored by leading experts in the field, this valuable reference captures the current state of the art and explores applications where sensor networks are used for sustainable development in: AgricultureEnvironmentEnergy HealthcareTransportationDisaster managementBeneficial to designers and planners of emerging telecommunication networks, researchers in related industries, and students and academia seeking to learn about the impact of sensor networks on sustainable development, Sensor Networks for Sustainable Development provides scientific tutorials and technical information about smart sensor networks and their use in everything from remote patient monitoring to improving safety on the roadways and beyond. |
