         Ubiquitous computing and communications have changed our life greatly

    nowadays via numerous portable devices and cellular phones. An emerging

    information technology is to allow human to monitor and measure the

    physical world via a large amount of low-cost sensors for data gathering,

    query processing and environment monitoring. The general field is called

    the wireless sensor networks (WSN). Several potential applications of WSN

    have been considered, such as military surveillance, structural monitoring,

    habitat monitoring, patient monitoring, etc. Research on WSN has grown

    quickly over the last 5 years. It is a highly inter-disciplinary field

    since it involves techniques from the application layer (e.g. data/signal

    processing, distributed algorithms), the networking layer (e.g. distributed

    protocols, routing) and the physical layer (e.g. sensor design and

    manufacturing, wireless communication). One critical issue to be addressed

    in all three layers is power management. It is expected to be one of the

    very fast growing fields in the next decade in both academic and industrial

    sectors. This talk will provide a broad view of recent developments in WSN

    and point out some interesting research problems. Some new research results

    conducted at the University of Southern California (USC) will also be

    mentioned.
