Who would be most interested in using the Fabric for Sensor Network Management and Data Transfer?
The Fabric will be of interest to researchers, designers, implementers, and integrators of distributed sensor networks in domains including: Environmental: Environmental concerns and regulations are driving the increased use of sensors for applications as diverse as flood detection, wildlife monitoring, and pollution monitoring. Industrial: Industry makes extensive use of sensors to enhance safety, efficiency and quality, and to optimize process control and reduce costs. Commercial: Sensors are increasingly used to track the movement of goods and assets as part of distributed supply chain management processes. Medical: The use of sensors for applications such as remote patient monitoring (the ability to monitor patients in their own homes) will have a dramatic impact on health care delivery.
