Optimization Issues and Algorithms for Wireless Sensor Networks With Mobile Sink

Overview Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are a new kind of ad-hoc wireless network that will probably bring new progress on the paradigm of pervasive computing. Many applications have already been envisioned for WSNs, such as: support for traffic engineering, providing information about traffic conditions, motor cars flows, etc; animal life monitoring and environment variables measurement, reporting values of temperature, dampness, brightness, etc.

Peter Cochrane's Uncommon Sense: Science and belief

Ideally practitioners and patients should be blind to the experiment and the observers analysing the outcomes should be the only people aware of all the variables. In an ideal world experimenters should be free of bias in their selection of...

2015: RFID is all over - make way for super RFID

Sensor networks could be used to monitor temperature-sensitive materials and send a text alert to a mobile phone if the material's temperature moves beyond its set range, for instance. BP is working with Accenture on a sensor network to look after...

Radioactive: Today a jam, tomorrow the open road?

The NOW project believes that once cars are networked on an ad hoc basis, they could share their sensor and positional data with other cars in close proximity, thereby cutting down the accidents caused by blind corners, attention lapses and...

Supply chains go on-demand

And the parts that make up our cars are timed to arrive in the factory on the day of assembly, minimising excess inventory that has to be stored and managed, keeping manufacturing costs as low as possible.

Virtualisation: Architectual Considerations and other Evaluation Criteria

In the past several years, server virtualisation technology has moved quickly and firmly into the IT mainstream. Of the many approaches to system virtualisation available in the market today, VMware's hypervisor architecture has gained the greatest market acceptance. This paper examines the architectural issues, solution support, and enterprise readiness required when deploying such a virtualisation solution.
