Abstract:

The talk consists of two parts. The first part will present an overview on the current research activities of iNEXT (Centre for Innovation in IT applications and Services) at the University of Technology, Sydney. This includes a brief description of our Sensor Grid for Assistive Healthcare project.

The second part will present a new research project in the area of optimising energy consumption in wireless sensor network applications. Most wireless sensor networks operate with very limited energy sources-their batteries, and hence their usefulness in real life applications is severely constrained. The challenging issue is how to optimize the use of their energy in order to lengthen their lives for wider classes of application. Unlike most current researches that focus on a single energy constituent of WSNs independent from and regardless of other constituents, our research focuses on the overall energy consumption as a performance measure and the talk presents a Hierarchy Energy Driven Architecture (HEDA) for minimizing the total energy consumption of a WSN. As the research is still in its early stage, many important issues are being explored. You are welcome to collaborate with us on this investigation.
