Preface
As the field of communications networks continues to evolve, a very interesting and challenging area —
wireless sensor networks — is rapidly coming of age. A wireless sensor network consists of a large number
of sensor nodes that may be randomly and densely deployed. Sensor nodes are small electronic compo-
nents capable of sensing many types of information from the environment, including temperature; light;
humidity; radiation; the presence or nature of biological organisms; geological features; seismic vibra-
tions; specific types of computer data; and more. Recent advancements have made it possible to make
these components small, powerful, and energy efficient and they can now be manufactured cost-effectively
in quantity for specialized telecommunications applications. Very small in size, the sensor nodes are
capable of gathering, processing, and communicating information to other nodes and to the outside
world. Based on the information handling capabilities and compact size of the sensor nodes, sensor
networks are often referred to as “smart dust.”
Sensor networks have numerous applications, including health; agriculture; geology; retail; military;
home; and emergency management. Sensor network research and development derive many concepts
and protocols from distributed computer networks such as the Internet; however, several technical
challenges in sensor networks need to be addressed due to the specialized nature of the sensors and the
fact that many sensor network applications may involve remote mobile sensors with limited power sources
that must dynamically adapt to their environment. This handbook proposes to capture the current state
of sensor networks and to serve as a source of comprehensive reference material on them.
The handbook has a total of 40 chapters written by experts from around the world and is divided into
the following nine sections:
1. Introduction
2. Applications
3. Architecture
4. Protocols
5. Tracking technologies
6. Data gathering and processing
7. Energy management
8. Security, reliability, and fault tolerance
9. Performance and design aspects
The targeted audience for this handbook include
s professionals who are designers and/or planners for
emerging telecommunication networks; researchers (faculty members and graduate students); and those
who would like to learn about this field.
This handbook provides technical information about various aspects of sensor networks, networks
comprising multiple compact, intercommunicating electronic sensors. The areas covered range from

basic concepts to research-grade material, including future directions. This handbook should serve as a
complete reference material for sensor networks.
The
Handbook of Sensor Networks
has the following specific salient features:
•It serves as a single comprehensive source of information and as reference material on wireless
sensor networks.
•It deals with an important and timely topic of emerging communication technology of tomorrow.
•It presents accurate, up-to-date information on a broad range of topics related to wireless sensor
networks.
•It presents material authored by experts in the field.
•It presents the information in an organized and well-structured manner.
•Although it is not precisely a textbook, it can certainly be used as one for graduate courses and
research-oriented courses that deal with wireless sensor networks. Any comments from the readers
will be highly appreciated.
Many people have contributed to this handbook in their unique ways. The first and the foremost group
that deserves immense gratitude is the highly talented and skilled researchers who have contributed 40
chapters to this handbook. All of them have been extremely cooperative and professional. It has also
been a pleasure to work with Nora Konopka and Helena Redshaw of CRC Press; we are extremely grateful
for their support and professionalism. We also thank Sophie Kirkwood and Gail Renard in the CRC
production department. Our families have extended their unconditional love and strong support
throughout this project and they all deserve very special thanks.

zations; a senior member of IEEE, he is an active participant in several IEEE technical committees and
activities.
Imad Mahgoub
, Ph.D., received his B.Sc. degree in electrical engineering from the University of Khar-
toum, Khartoum, Sudan, in 1978. From 1978 to 1981, he worked for the Sudan Shipping Line Company,
Port Sudan, Sudan, as an electrical and electronics engineer. He received his M.S. in applied mathematics
in 1983 and his M.S. in electrical and computer engineering in 1986, both from North Carolina State
University. In 1989, he received his Ph.D. in computer engineering from The Pennsylvania State University.
Since August 1989, Dr. Mahgoub has been with the College of Engineering at Florida Atlantic Uni-
versity, Boca Raton, Florida, where he is currently professor of computer science and engineering. He is
the director of the Computer Science and Engineering Department Mobile Computing Laboratory at
Florida Atlantic University.
Dr. Mahgoub has conducted successful research in various areas, including mobile computing; inter-
connection networks; performance evaluation of computer systems; and advanced computer architecture.
He has published over 70 research articles and supervised three Ph.D. dissertations and 18 M.S. theses
to completion. He has served as a consultant to industry.
Dr. Mahgoub served as a member of the
executive committee/program committee of
the 1998, 1999, and 2000 IEEE International Performance,
Computing and Communications Conferences.
He has served on the program committees of several
international conferences and symposia. He is currently the vice chair of the 2004 International Sympo-
sium on Performance Evaluation of Computer and Telecommunication Systems. Dr. Mahgoub is a senior
member of IEEE and a member of ACM.
