A wireless sensor network consists of a large numberof sensor nodes that may be randomly and densely deployed. Sensor nodes are small electronic compo-nents capable of sensing many types of information from the environment, including temperature; light;humidity; radiation; the presence or nature of biological organisms; geological features; seismic vibra-tions; specific types of computer data; and more. Recent advancements have made it possible to makethese components small, powerful, and energy efficient and they can now be manufactured cost-effectivelyin quantity for specialized telecommunications applications. Very small in size, the sensor nodes arecapable of gathering, processing, and communicating information to other nodes and to the outsideworld. Based on the information handling capabilities and compact size of the sensor nodes, sensornetworks are often referred to as “smart dust.”Sensor networks have numerous applications, including health; agriculture; geology; retail; military;home; and emergency management. Sensor network research and development derive many conceptsand protocols from distributed computer networks such as the Internet; however, several technicalchallenges in sensor networks need to be addressed due to the specialized nature of the sensors and thefact that many sensor network applications may involve remote mobile sensors with limited power sourcesthat must dynamically adapt to their environment. This handbook proposes to capture the current stateof sensor networks and to serve as a source of comprehensive reference material on them.The handbook has a total of 40 chapters written by experts from around the world and is divided intothe following nine sections:1.2.3.4.5.6.7.8.9.IntroductionApplicationsArchitectureProtocolsTracking technologiesData gathering and processingEnergy managementSecurity, reliability, and fault tolerancePerformance and design aspectsThe targeted audience for this handbook includes professionals who are designers and/or planners foremerging telecommunication networks; researchers (faculty members and graduate students); and thosewho would like to learn about this field.This handbook provides technical information about various aspects of sensor networks, networkscomprising multiple compact, intercommunicating electronic sensors. The areas covered range fromCopyright © 2005 by CRC Press LLCbasic concepts to research-grade material, including future directions. This handbook should serve as acomplete reference material for sensor networks.TheHandbook of Sensor Networkshas the following specific salient features:• It serves as a single comprehensive source of information and as reference material on wirelesssensor networks.• It deals with an important and timely topic of emerging communication technology of tomorrow.• It presents accurate, up-to-date information on a broad range of topics related to wireless sensornetworks.• It presents material authored by experts in the field.• It presents the information in an organized and well-structured manner.• Although it is not precisely a textbook, it can certainly be used as one for graduate courses andresearch-oriented courses that deal with wireless sensor networks. Any comments from the readerswill be highly appreciated.Many people have contributed to this handbook in their unique ways. The first and the foremost groupthat deserves immense gratitude is the highly talented and skilled researchers who have contributed 40chapters to this handbook. All of them have been extremely cooperative and professional. It has alsobeen a pleasure to work with Nora Konopka and Helena Redshaw of CRC Press; we are extremely gratefulfor their support and professionalism. We also thank Sophie Kirkwood and Gail Renard in the CRCproduction department. Our families have extended their unconditional love and strong supportthroughout this project and they all deserve very special thanks.Mohammad Ilyas and Imad MahgoubBoca Raton, FloridaCopyright © 2005 by CRC Press LLCEditorsMohammad Ilyas,Ph.D., received his B.Sc. degree in electrical engineering from the University ofEngineering and Technology, Lahore, Pakistan, in 1976. From March 1977 to September 1978, he workedfor the Water and Power Development Authority in Pakistan. In 1978, he was awarded a scholarship forhis graduate studies and he completed his M.S. degree in electrical and electronic engineering in June1980 at Shiraz University, Shiraz, Iran. In September 1980, he joined the doctoral program at Queen’sUniversity in Kingston, Ontario, Canada; he completed his Ph.D. degree in 1983. Dr. Ilyas’ doctoralresearch was about switching and flow control techniques in computer communication networks. SinceSeptember 1983, he has been with the College of Engineering at Florida Atlantic University, Boca Raton,Florida, where he is currently associate dean for graduate studies and research. From 1994 to 2000, hewas chair of the department. During the 1993–1994 academic year, he was on his sabbatical leave withthe Department of Computer Engineering, King Saud University, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.Dr. Ilyas has conducted successful research in various areas, including traffic management and con-gestion control in broadband/high-speed communication networks; traffic characterization; wirelesscommunication networks; performance modeling; and simulation. He has published one book, threehandbooks, and over 140 research articles. He has supervised 10 Ph.D. dissertations and more than 35M.S. theses to completion. Dr. Ilyas has been a consultant to several national and international organi-zations; a senior member of IEEE, he is an active participant in several IEEE technical committees andactivities.Imad Mahgoub,Ph.D., received his B.Sc. degree in electrical engineering from the University of Khar-toum, Khartoum, Sudan, in 1978. From 1978 to 1981, he worked for the Sudan Shipping Line Company,Port Sudan, Sudan, as an electrical and electronics engineer. He received his M.S. in applied mathematicsin 1983 and his M.S. in electrical and computer engineering in 1986, both from North Carolina StateUniversity. In 1989, he received his Ph.D. in computer engineering from The Pennsylvania State University.Since August 1989, Dr. Mahgoub has been with the College of Engineering at Florida Atlantic Uni-versity, Boca Raton, Florida, where he is currently professor of computer science and engineering. He isthe director of the Computer Science and Engineering Department Mobile Computing Laboratory atFlorida Atlantic University.Dr. Mahgoub has conducted successful research in various areas, including mobile computing; inter-connection networks; performance evaluation of computer systems; and advanced computer architecture.He has published over 70 research articles and supervised three Ph.D. dissertations and 18 M.S. thesesto completion. He has served as a consultant to industry. Dr. Mahgoub served as a member of theexecutive committee/program committee ofthe 1998, 1999, and 2000 IEEE International Performance,Computing and Communications Conferences.He has served on the program committees of severalinternational conferences and symposia. He is currently the vice chair of the 2004 International Sympo-sium on Performance Evaluation of Computer and Telecommunication Systems.
