Preface
The field of wireless works continues to evolve and grow in both practical
and research domains. More and more wireless works are being used to
gather information in real life applications. It mon to see how this technology
is being applied in irrigation systems, intelligent buildings, bridges, security mecha-
nisms, military operations, transportation-related applications, etc. At the same time,
new developments in hardware, software, munication technologies are ex-
panding these possibilities. As in any other technology, research brings new devel-
opments and refinements and continuous improvements of current approaches that
push the technology even further.
