A number of different system concepts have become apparent in the broader context of embedded systems over the past few years. Whilst there exist some differences between these, this book argues that in fact there is much they share in common, particularly the important notions of control, heterogenity, wireless communication, dynamics/ad hoc nature and cost. The first part of the book covers cooperating object applications and the currently available application scenarios, such as control and automation, healthcare, and security and surveillance. The second part discusses paradigms for...

There are a number of different system concepts that have gained much relevance in the area of embedded systems over the past couple of years. First, there is the classic concept of embedded systems where the focus is on control systems for physical processes. Secondly, the notion of pervasive computing has evolved, where the vision foresees everyday objects having some form of computation capacity and, in most cases, sensing and communication facilities. Thirdly, the notion of wireless sensor networks has arisen, where small computing devices are able to sense their...

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th European Conference on Wireless Sensor Networks, EWSN 2011, held in Bonn, Germany, in February 2011. The 14 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 87 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on routing and mobility, optimization techniques, MAC protocols, algorithms, and systems and abstractions.

This book provides an overview and an insight in cooperative objects and defines the classification of topics into the different areas. A significant number of researchers and industrial partners were contacted in order to prepare the roadmap. The book presents of the main results provided by the corresponding European project "CONET."
