Sensor Networks - no-wire SCADA systems or something more?

Rob Evans, National ICT Australia

This talk will overview the emerging area of (wireless) sensor networks with an emphasis on research challenges which underpin the business case for this technology. Wireless sensor networks can be thought of as 'no-wire' versions of well known SCADA systems and there are many situations where the removal of wires is of great value. There are also however more significant opportunities for wireless sensor networks if certain fundamental research challenges can be met. This talk will further describe this view and articulate some of the research challenges.
