3nd International Workshop on Mobility in Wireless Sensor Networks
-
MOBISENSOR 2012,
Hangzhou, China,
May 18, 2012
|
Mar 5, 2012 |
The mobility extension represents a more recent research subject in sensor networking; mobility opens up a whole new level of research opportunities and challenges in WSNs, and significantly expands the types of applications for which WSNs can be used. This workshop aims to highlight the benefits and challenges from such a step and outline the state of the art in this particularly promising research area. |
The 11th International Conference on Ad Hoc Networks and WirelessADHOC-NOW 2012,
Belgrade, Serbia,
Jul 9-11, 2012
|
Feb 17, 2012
|
Since its creation in 2002, the International Conference on Ad Hoc
Networks and Wireless (ADHOC-NOW) has become a well-established and
well known event dedicated to wireless and mobile computing. It serves
as a forum for interesting discussions on ongoing research and new
contributions. The conference addresses both experimental and theoretical
research in the areas of ad hoc networks, sensor networks, mesh networks
and vehicular networks. It focuses on all issues from link layer up to
the application layer. |
IEEE SENSORS 2012 ,Taipei, Taiwan,
28-31 October 2012.
|
30 Jun 2012
|
IEEE SENSORS 2012 is intended to provide a forum for research scientists, engineers, and practitioners throughout the world to present their latest research findings, ideas, and applications in the area of sensors and sensing technology. |

"Counting
Targets: Building and Managing Aggregates in Wireless Sensor
Networks"
Palo Alto Research Center Technical
Report P2002-10298, June 2002
This paper presents a distributed
protocol for constructing sensor aggregates in the
context of counting distinct targets in a sensor field.
+: .portability at the level of hardware resources
.good performances (analytical analisys
and simulation - but no experiments)
-
: .power
consumption not addressed
.performance depends much on inter-nodes
distances, topology and communication radius
.thin support for query processing

" Real-Time
Face Detection on a Configurable Hardware System"
Field-Programmable Logic and Applications,
10th International Workshop, FPL 2000, Villach, Austria, LNCS
1896, Springer 2000
It presents the design of a real-time face detection system
and its implementation on a configurable hardware platform (Transmogrifier-2a,
FPGA), which use a neural-network-like face detector.
+: .fast, robust
.hardware efficient (at the level
of TM2a)
-
: .require
÷31500 Logic Cells running at 12.5 MHz
.assume that all faces will be approximately
upright and facing the camera
