Abstract :
Editor´s NoteResearchers at Kean University describe their experience developing and deploying a real-time environmental monitoring and visualization system using a mesh network of wireless sensors. Challenges they addressed in their design of the Wireless Integrated Network Sensors (WiNS) application include issues associated with the data volume, latency, and data synchronization from individually clocked sensors.-Dorée Duncan Seligmann.
