Abstract :
With the MEMS revolution in full swing, microsensors are now following manufacturing curves that are at least related to Moore´s Law. Combined with the push for low power communication and computation coming from the handheld community, this enables an exciting new field of low-cost, high-performance wireless sensor networks. This talk will address some of the practical and physical limits associated with miniaturization of wireless sensor networks.
