Title
Sensor Network, Where Is It Going to Be?
Abstract
This is a sequel panel to “Sensor network: Is it for real or just for research?” held 2 years back in SUTC 2006. The sensor network community has worked hard trying to find the rightful places to make sensor networks useful since then. We have seen, over the last couple years, teams reporting experimental use of sensor networks deep in the mountains, up in the air, down underwater, sitting on the roads, deployed in the hospitals, and, the least expected but surprisingly plausible, worn by the dancers in performance art theaters. We all deserve a warm 'well done' given the effort.It is perhaps time to ask ourselves again. Are these applications for real or just for everyone's amusement? Invited panelists are all experts and pioneers who have reported experimental uses of sensor networks in the real world. They will share with us openly the most difficult part of their work and discuss, hopefully also openly, whether they think the sensor network approach is (1) feasible, (2) economical, (3) useful, and, to the extreme, (4) commercializable (i.e., profitable).
