Preface Wireless Sensor Networking is one of the most important new technologies of the century and has been identified to see significant grow in the next decades. Wireless sensor networks are power-efficient, small-size and communicate wirelessly among each other to cooperatively monitor and access the properties of their targeted environments. Applications reach from health monitoring, through industrial and environmental monitoring to safety applications. In this book we present some recent exciting developments of software communication technologies and some novel applications. We hope you will enjoy reading the book as much as we have enjoyed bringing it together for you. The book presents efforts by a number of people. We would like to thank all the researchers and especially the chapter authors who entrusted us with their best work and it is their work that enabled us to collect the material for this book.
