This is a proposal to design, develop, and prove out new technologies and associated methodologies forcreating distributed wireless networks of "sensors", "actuators", and "sinks". An integrated network of thesecomponents would be capable of autonomously monitoring and reacting to the physical environment accordingto predefined rules.In the context of the proposed research, "sensors" are collections of large numbers of small, low-cost,low-power, multifunctional devices that gather information about the physical world. For example, they coulddetect motion, temperature, humidity, concentrations of specific chemicals, etc. The sensors wirelesslytransmit this data to other proposed network devices called "actuators" and "sinks". Actuators consolidate datareceived from large groups of sensors, evaluate the data, and autonomously perform actions on the environmentbased on some decision logic. They may be fixed devices or even mobile robots. "Sinks" resemble actuatorsexcept that they do not perform actions on the environment. Sinks would also provide overall networkadministration and configuration capabilities for users, and could link to other networks such as the Internet.This proposal covers an emerging area of technology research with many potentially valuable commercial,industrial, and military applications. The proposed research would build on a strong foundation of knowledgeand expertise in telecommunications and data modeling that exists in Canada. The new research would enablecutting-edge and highly competitive capabilities for environmental data collection, analysis, and response innascent markets.

这是一个设计，开发和证明新技术和相关方法的建议，用于创建“传感器”，“执行器”和“汇”的分布式无线网络。这些组件的集成网络将能够根据预定义的规则自动监控物理环境并做出反应。在拟议的研究中，“传感器”是大量小型、低成本、低功耗、多功能设备的集合，它们收集有关物理世界的信息。例如，它们可以检测运动、温度、湿度、特定化学物质的浓度等。传感器将这些数据无线传输到其他被称为“执行器”和“接收器”的拟议网络设备。执行器整合从大量传感器接收到的数据，评估数据，并基于某些决策逻辑自主地对环境执行操作。它们可以是固定的设备，甚至是移动的机器人。“接收器”类似于执行器，除了它们不对环境执行操作。汇点还将为用户提供全面的网络管理和配置能力，并可以链接到其他网络，如Internet。这一建议涵盖了一个新兴的技术研究领域，具有许多潜在的有价值的商业，工业和军事应用。拟议的研究将建立在加拿大现有的电信和数据建模方面的知识和专业知识的坚实基础上。新的研究将使环境数据收集，分析和响应新兴市场的尖端和高度竞争力的能力。
