Prof. SUbhas Chandra Mukhopadhyay of School of Engineering, Macquarie University

In recent time wireless sensors and sensor networks have been widely used in many applications such as monitoring environmental parameters, monitoring, and control of industrial situations, intelligent transportation, structural health monitoring, health care and so on. The advancement of electronics, embedded controller, smart wireless sensors, intelligent computation, networking, and communication have made it a possibility of the development of a low cost, low power smart wireless sensors nodes.  WSN based smart home provides a safe, sound and secure living environment for the inhabitant by monitoring activities 24/7. The development of smart homes leads to intelligent buildings from a broader perspective. Though significant developments have taken place but there are still many challenges faced by the researchers to make it happen to society. The talks will cover sensors, wireless sensor networks, Internet Sensing (Internet of Things), ambient intelligence based research and development activities as applicable to smart home and smart buildings.
