About SenSys
ACM SenSys is a selective, single-track forum for the presentation of research results on
systems issues in the area of
embedded networked sensors. The conference provides a venue to address the research challenges facing the
design
A design is a plan or specification for the construction of an object or system or for the implementation of an activity or process or the result of that plan or specification in the form of a prototype, product, or process. The verb ''to design' ...

Sensor networks
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) refer to networks of spatially dispersed and dedicated sensors that monitor and record the physical conditions of the environment and forward the collected data to a central location. WSNs can measure environmental c ...
