A wireless sensor network (WSN) is comprised of resource constrained devices called motes. Motes are battery operated and must conserve as much power as possible. Power usage for each mote is made up of processing data, sensing the surroundings, and sending and receiving packets. The bulk of power usage for standard WSN applications lies in the radio where receiving and sending packets are nece...

Abstract In this study, the SCAPS-1D tool has been used to numerically examine performance of Transition Metal Dichalcogenides (TMDC) based Molybdenum ditelluride (MoTe 2 ) solar cells containing CdS electron transport layer (ETL) and Cu O hole (HTL). Based on photovoltaic cell parameters, including absorber thickness, temperature, defect density, effects series shunt resistance, affinity, stru...

In this paper we investigate the performance of mica2 and mica2dot Berkeley motes by means of an extensive experimental analysis. This study is aimed at analyzing the main elements that characterize the performance of a sensor network, e.g., power consumption in different operating conditions, impact of weather conditions, interference between neighboring nodes, etc. Even if the analysis is rel...

If more than one fracture toughness test is performed for the same material, representative value obtained from minimum of three equivalent (MOTE) in accordance with related standards. MOTE evaluated by referring to lowest results when number 3 5, second 6 10, and third 11 15. With conventional process, it clear, however, that depends on results. When comparing evaluation values 5 results, base...

The Tyndall-DMS-Mote is a wireless sensor device that can monitor patient vital signs non-intrusively within and outside their home. Patient real-time vital sign readings (dynamic data) and archived records (static data) need to be managed, correlated and analysed in a cohesive manner to produce effective results. The Data Management System (DMS) has been developed to intelligently manage this ...

Surveillance is one of the promising applications to which smart camera motes forming a vision-enabled network can add increasing levels of intelligence. We see a high degree of in-node processing in combination with distributed reasoning algorithms as the key enablers for such intelligent surveillance systems. To put these systems into practice still requires a considerable amount of research ...

It is commonly agreed that a 15-40% reduction of building energy consumption is achievable by efficiently operated buildings when compared with typical practice. Existing research has identified that the level of information available to Building Managers with existing Building Management Systems and Environmental Monitoring Systems (BMS/EMS) is insufficient to perform the required performance ...
