Research and Markets Reports New Book Featuring Distributed Sensing Systems

By Will SoutterSep 6 2012

Research and Markets has declared that a new book titled "Distributed Sensor Systems. Practice and Applications" from John Wiley and Sons has been added to their portfolio.

This book includes discussions on the sensor technology-based advances, fostering new applications that promote technological evolution. Based on the advanced, revolutionary approach of distributed intelligence, three individual yet closely inter-related areas of developments for distributed sensing systems (DSS) have been focused upon. The areas include the following:

Sensor technology that converts the phenomenon under study to signal like electric
The interaction process between sensing points that need enormous intelligence like networking
The use of valuable maturing systems by potential applications for the ideal impacts, benefiting from improved economy

The book also includes case studies and typical applications representing technical details, applications and features of the systems, in addition to showing its benefits and limitations.

The book mainly features the advantages and limitations of distributed sensing, and potential new applications. It has been authored by experts having broad expertise in academia as well as in industry.

This book will serve as key reference for postgraduates pursuing related courses like engineering management, surveillance, communication engineering, automation, computer systems, industrial process, researchers, design, environmental, and for industrial project managers and engineers, urban, R&D engineers, system and application designers, and technical and strategic managers targeting new products.

Key topics in the book include smart sensing devices, monitoring well being, distributed sensors, clinical applications, public safety applications, smart sensing architectures, smart home, smart office, and geographical applications.
