Digital Twins in the Smart Classroom: Utilising Sensor Networks in the Educational Environment explores virtual schools that have incorporated digital twin computing into the day-to-day running of the classroom. The book discusses the foundational concepts, practical applications, future directions, and the various aspects of virtual school, such as the student's daily activities, intelligent wireless sensor networks, privacy issues, and how the internet of things, artificial intelligence,...

This book provides a Mathematical Theory of Distributed Sensor Networks. It introduces the Mathematical & Computational Structure by discussing what they are, their applications and how they differ from traditional systems. It also explains how mathematics are utilized to provide efficient techniques implementing effective coverage, deployment, transmission, data processing, signal processing, and data protection within distributed sensor networks. Finally, it discusses some important chal...

Wireless ad hoc sensor networks has recently become a very active research subject. Achieving efficient, fault-tolerant realizations of very large, highly dynamic, complex, unconventional networks is a real challenge for abstract modelling, algorithmic design and analysis, but a solid foundational and theoretical background seems to be lacking. This book presents high-quality contributions by leading experts worldwide on the key algorithmic and complexity-theoretic aspects of wireless sens...

Large-scale video networks are of increasing importance in a wide range of applications.

The book addresses a broad spec...

Are you assessing Sensor Networks and risk? What is the Sensor Networks problem definition? What do you need to resolve? Have you included everything in your Sensor Networks cost models? Can you adapt and adjust to changing Sensor Networks situations? Do you monitor the Sensor Networks decisions made and fine tune them as they evolve?Defining, designing, creating, and implementing a process to solve a challenge or meet an objective is the most valuable role… In EVERY group, company...

What sources do you use to gather information for a Wireless sensor networks study? Are you making progress, and are you making progress as Wireless sensor networks leaders? What Wireless sensor networks data should be managed? What does Wireless sensor networks success mean to the stakeholders? How do you measure improved Wireless sensor networks service perception, and satisfaction?Defining, designing, creating, and implementing a process to solve a challenge or meet an objective...

This SpringerBrief evaluates the cooperative effort of sensor nodes to accomplish high-level tasks with sensing, data processing and communication. The metrics of network-wide convergence, unbiasedness, consistency and optimality are discussed through network topology, distributed estimation algorithms and consensus strategy. Systematic analysis reveals that proper deployment of sensor nodes and a small number of low-cost relays (without sensing function) can speed up the information fusio...

Understand the fundamental building blocks of the Internet of ThingsThe Internet of Things is the term for an ever-growing body of physical devices, vehicles, rooms, and other objects that can collect and exchange data using embedded capacities for network connectivity. Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) represent the ‘sensing arm’ of this network of objects, providing the mechanism for collecting and transmitting data from these objects. Wireless Sensor Networks ...

The idea of this book comes from the observation that sensor networks represent a topic of interest from both theoretical and practical perspectives. The title und- lines that sensor networks offer the unique opportunity of clearly linking theory with practice. In fact, owing to their typical low-cost, academic researchers have the opportunity of implementing sensor network testbeds to check the validity of their theories, algorithms, protocols, etc., in reality. Likewise, a practitioner h...

This book constitutes revised selected papers from the 13th International Symposium on Algorithms and Experiments for Wireless Sensor Networks, ALGOSENSORS 2017, held in Vienna, in September 2017.The 17 full papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 30 submissions. ALGOSENSORS is an international symposium dedicated to the algorithmic aspects of wireless networks. Originally focused on sensor networks, it now covers algorithmic issues arising in wire...
