Wireless sensor data network

Abstract

A Wireless Sensor Data Network is built of "nodes" -from a few to several hundreds or even thousands, where each node is connected to one or sometimes several sensors. Wireless Sensor Data Networks are composed of a set of tiny devices called sensors.Wireless Sensor Data networks (WSN) have been identified as one of the most important technologies for the 21st century. This paper traces the history of research in sensor networks over the past three decades. Various application areas and technical challenges of Wireless Sensor data Networks are presented in this paper. The paper concludes by presenting some recent research results in sensor network algorithms.
