Localization and tracking are key functionalities in ubiquitous computing systems and techniques. In recent years a very high variety of approaches, sensors and techniques for indoor and GPS-denied environments have been developed. This book briefly summarizes the current state of the art in localization and tracking in ubiquitous computing systems focusing on cluster-based schemes. Additionally, existing techniques for measurement integration, node inclusion/exclusion and cluster head selection are also described in this book.
Che cosa accadrà il giorno in cui un magnate tecnologico diventerà il padrone del mondo? E quello in cui verrà inaugurato il primo vero Jurassic Park? Che cosa succederà quando Internet si bloccherà ovunque? E dopo che l'ultimo pesce sarà morto nei nostri oceani? E quando gli antibiotici avranno smesso di fare effetto? Oppure quando una bomba atomica esploderà sulle nostre teste o riceveremo un segnale emesso da una forma di vita aliena intelligente? In Il giorno in cui tutto finisce Mike Pearl esplora quello che accadrebbe in venti possibili scenari meravigliosi o catastrofici e ci consegna un reportage dal futuro, assegnando tassi di probabilità e offrendoci un quadro molto documen...

This book is the second volume on Cooperative Robots and Sensor Networks. The primary objective of this book is to provide an up-to-date reference for cutting-edge studies and research trends related to mobile robots and wireless sensor networks, and in particular for the coupling between them. Indeed, mobile robots and wireless sensor networks have enabled great potentials and a large space for ubiquitous and pervasive applications. Robotics and wireless sensor networks have mostly been considered as separate research fields and little work has investigated the marriage between these two technologies. However, these two technologies share several features, enable common cyber-physical appli...
Testbeds are gaining increasing relevance in research domains and also in industrial applications. However, very few books devoted to testbeds have been published. To the best of my knowledge no book on this topic has been published. This book is particularly interesting for the growing community of testbed developers. I believe the book is also very interesting for researchers in robot-WSN cooperation. This book provides detailed description of a system that can be considered the first testbed that allows full peer-to-peer interoperability between heterogeneous robots and ubiquitous systems such as Wireless Sensor Networks, camera networks and pervasive computing systems. The system archite...
