OBJECTIVES:
 To provide an overview about sensor networks and emerging technologies.
 To study about the node and network architecture of sensor nodes and its execution
environment.
 To understand the concepts of communication, MAC, routing protocols and also study about
the naming and addressing in WSN.
 To learn about topology control and clustering in networks with timing synchronization for
localization services with sensor tasking and control.
 To study about sensor node hardware and software platforms and understand the simulation
and programming techniques
