SCOPE
-------------------------------------------------------------
With recent advances in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), their practical
applications in general sensing and monitoring are rapidly broadening.
Although
originally conceived for wide area environment or process monitoring, WSNs
are
increasingly being used in human computer interaction, gaming, and
interactive
digital art as well as in healthcare and patient monitoring. Despite the
recent
technological developments in the fields of sensing, embedded electronics,
and
sensor networking, several challenging issues need to be addressed. In
particular,
technological scaling, wireless communication and networking, sensor data
processing and presentation are key aspects that need to be investigated in
an
integrated fashion for enabling visionary applications in the above areas of
WSN.
