{"product_id":"wireless-sensor-networks-yen-kheng-tan-9789533073217","title":"Wireless Sensor Networks: Application - Centric Design","description":"Over the past decade, there has been a prolific increase in the research, development and commercialisation of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) and their associated technologies. WSNs have found application in a vast range of different domains, scenarios and disciplines. These have included healthcare, defence and security, environmental monitoring and building\/structural health monitoring. However, as a result of the broad array of pertinent applications, WSN researchers have also realised the application specificity of the domain; it is incredibly difficult, if not impossible, to find an application-independent solution to most WSN problems. Hence, research into WSNs dictates the adoption of an application-centric design process. This book is not intended to be a comprehensive review of all WSN applications and deployments to date. Instead, it is a collection of state-of-the-art research papers discussing current applications and deployment experiences, but also the communication and data processing technologies that are fundamental in further developing solutions to applications. Whilst a common foundation is retained through all chapters, this book contains a broad array of often differing interpretations, configurations and limitations of WSNs, and this highlights the diversity of this ever-changing research area. The chapters have been categorised into three distinct sections: applications and case studies, communication and networking, and information and data processing. The readership of this book is intended to be postgraduate\/postdoctoral researchers and professional engineers, though some of the chapters may be of relevance to interested masters level students.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Yen Kheng Tan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9533073217\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789533073217\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Intechopen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/14\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 508\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.21lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 1.13d","brand":"Yen Kheng Tan","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48137020866815,"sku":"9789533073217","price":205.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4bcd6b71-2f96-4943-b0d9-7016338be7ba.jpg?v=1770166011","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/wireless-sensor-networks-yen-kheng-tan-9789533073217","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
