 Abstract: The availability of cheap, low power, and miniature embedded processors, radios, sensors, and actuators, often integrated on a single chip, is leading to the use of wireless communications and computing for interacting with the physical world in applications such as security and surveillance applications, smart classroom, monitoring of natural habitats and eco-systems, medical monitoring etc. The resulting systems, often called wireless sensor networks, differ considerably from current networked and embedded systems.
They combine the large scale and distributed nature of networked systems such as the Internet with the extreme energy constraints and physically coupled nature of embedded control systems. Their design requires a proper understanding of the interplay between network protocols, energy-aware design, signal-processing algorithms, and distributed programming. This tutorial will address the design of this new class of systems, and give the students a comprehensive exposure to the practical as well as fundamental concepts, and the various run-time and design-time problems and techniques.
