Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) connects the physical and computational world by monitoring environmental phenomena through ubiquitous devices called sensor nodes or motes. The agriculture production process is affected by different factors such as temperature, light, soil humidity, soil moisture. Precision agriculture is a field which provides suitable scenarios for the deployment of wireless sensor networks (WSNs). WSNs provide accurate information about environmental characteristics to farmers. This knowledge represents a valuable resource because it helps in real-time decision making. There...

Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) is a connection-oriented packet switching technique that is universally accepted as the transfer mode of choice for Broadband Integrated Services Digital Network. Asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) is a cell-oriented switching and multiplexing technology that uses fixed-length (53 byte; 48 bytes of data, and 5 bytes of header information) packets - called cells - to carry various types of traffic, such as data, voice, video, multimedia, and so on, through multiple classes of services. ATM is a connection-oriented technology, in which a connection is established...
