In an interconnected world, smart sensor networks offer a means of gathering data from the internet of things, which can be analysed and utilised to make informed decisions in real world situations. Foundations of Smart Sensor Networks provides a comprehensive guide to understanding the concepts and applications of sensor network technology. This book presents the core concepts, principles, design and architectures of smart sensor networks, and their pivotal role in modern communication. It explores the innovative technologies that use artificial intelligence, machine learning and optimization algorithms for data collection and clustering, routing, security, and energy management. The TOC is structured in five sections, beginning with an introductory overview of smart sensor networks, including a guide to types of smart sensor networks. The second section delves into the fundamental principles of smart sensor networks, including a discussion of energy management, and security and privacy issues. Part Three considers how sensor networks can work with artificial intelligence. Part Four considers applications of smart sensor networks in the real world, for example for monitoring the environment and healthcare. The book closes with an exploration of the future opportunities and risks inherent in adopting smart sensor networks.

Overall, Foundations of Smart Sensor Networks equips the reader with the knowledge needed to design, implement, and optimize smart sensor networks for a variety of applications.
