Abstract :
One of the key technologies associated with ubiquitous network society services is wireless sensor network (WSN). The WSN technology incorporates multiple technology components such as wireless, sensor, and embedded system. WSN was quoted by the MIT Technology Review as one of the technologies that will create giant impact to future life styles and various industrial segments. For WSN applications, the sensor device is the key since they need to be deployed to collect environmental data for further analysis. According to the analysis report by On World, the CAGR for sensor nodes deployed worldwide will be 216%, and the revenue of sensor chips will reach US$12.1 billions in 2010. Therefore it becomes one of the most important & potential technologies.Wireless sensor network enables connectivity and intelligence for sensor applications that will provide advanced monitoring, automation, and control solutions for a range of industries. There are nearly unlimited numbers of WSN markets that have different technology considerations such as frequencies, sampling rate, topologies, sensor to use, etc. In this panel section, it is our honor to invite experts in WSN applications or industries to discuss (1) what will be the killer applications for wireless sensor network, and (2) their associated technology requirements.
