We live in a world where demand for monitoring natural and artificial phenomena is growing. The practical importance of Sensor Networks is continuously increasing in our society due to their broad applicability to tasks such as traffic and air-pollution monitoring, forest-fire detection, agriculture, and battlefield communication. Furthermore, we have seen the emergence of sensor technology being...
Ecologists can assess the health of wetlands by monitoring populations of animals such as Anurans (i.e., frogs and toads), which are sensitive to habitat changes. But, surveying anurans requires trained experts to identify species from the animals' mating calls. This identification task can be streamlined by automation. To this end, we propose an automatic frog-call classification algorithm and a...
In recent years, we have witnessed many advances in communication technologies such as wireless devices. One of the main concerns when dealing with wireless technologies is the limitation in resources such as memory and battery due to the large amount of data exchanged nowadays. In today's societies, people and wireless devices (e.g., smartphones and tablets) are strongly coupled. Therefore, it is...
Sensor Networks are becoming ubiquitous in our society due to their broad applicability to data intensive tasks such as keeping air population to safe levels, efficient communication in military applications, to mention but a few. Furthermore, we have seen the emergence of sensor technology being integrated in everyday objects such as cars, traffic lights, phones, and even being attached to living...
Sensor networks are gaining in importance in today's society, from air-pollution monitoring to forest-fire detection, from agriculture to battlefield communication, sensor networks are ubiquitous in many parts of the world. Furthermore, this is a world where sensors are increasingly integrated in smart phones and tablets. The use of this collection sensors as sensor-network infrastructures (towards...
