Wireless sensor
network (WSN) refers to a group of spatially dispersed and dedicated sensors
for monitoring and recording the physical conditions of the environment and
organizing the collected data at a central location. WSNs measure environmental
conditions like temperature, sound, pollution levels, humidity, wind, and so
on.
In the present book, twelve typical
literatures about wireless sensor network published on international authoritative
journals were selected to introduce the worldwide newest progress, which
contains reviews or original researches on multidimensional scaling, data center
monitoring, online collaborative sensor data management platforms, distributed
sensor network, In-network processing and secure data aggregation, etc. We hope this book can
demonstrate advances in wireless sensor network as well
as give references to the researchers, students and other related people.
