Energy Management Projects for WSNs

Abstract

The project presented all along this chapter stresses on the need to factor in the maintenance costs while designing the system, to look carefully at software and hardware interactions, to rapidly deploythe initial prototype, and to interact continuously with domain scientists. The full implementation considered the energy management schemes meticulously offered in Part II of this book and provided alive environment monitoring application.A complete energy aware WSN must involve energy harvesting as well as energy management techniques. Efforts are sought in such embodying direction at the research and implementation levels.
