Beyond Visualization – Vivid Frameworks for Ubiquitous Sensor Data

Paradiso J., Massachusetts Institute of Technology, US

We have already witnessed profound and often unanticipated developments as IoT is built out and the world is mediated via mainly graphical wireless devices held at arm’s length. But what will happen once the world [...]

Some Novel Applications for Wireless Inertial Sensors

Paradiso J.A., Massachusetts Institute of Technology, US

Sensors have followed a corollary of Moore’s Law as they progressively decrease in size, cost, and often power. Nowhere is this more evident than with inertial sensor systems, as MEMS-based devices become steadily smaller and [...]

Intelligent Sensors: Systems or Components?

White N., Southampton University, UK

This paper reviews the field of intelligent (smart) sensor technology and describes some of the trends that have emerged over the last two decades. The functionality of intelligent sensors is discussed, together with an assessment [...]

Intelligent Data Aggregation in Sensor Networks Using Artificial Neural-Networks Algorithms

Kulakov A., Davcev D., Ss. Cyril and Methodius University, MK

Most of the current in-network data processing algorithms are modified regression techniques like multidimensional data series analysis. In our opinion, some of the algorithms well developed within the artificial neural-networks tradition, for over 40 years, [...]
