In recent years, advances in miniaturization; low-power circuit design; simple, low power, yet reasonably efficient wireless communication equipment; and improved small-scale energy supplies have combined with reduced manufacturing costs to make a new technological vision possible: Wireless sensor networks. A sensor network is composed of a large number of sensor/actuator nodes, which are densely deployed either inside the phenomenon or very close to it. The position of nodes need not be engineered or pre-determined. This allows random deployment in inaccessible terrains or disaster relief operation. The aim is to develop and facilitate the use of scalable and modular wireless heterogeneous sensor/actuator networks in the e-Society. The proposed research is to advance fundamentally the tools we have developed in the past for Wireless Sensor Network Applications. In particular, the focus will be on Wireless Heterogeneous Sensor Networks (WHSNs) for the Internet of Things (IOT). The goal is to develop and facilitate the use of scalable, modular, reliable, secure and cost effective WHSNs in order to meet the increasing variety of applications in the emerging e-Society. The objective is to develop network architectures along with supporting protocols and algorithms and network control mechanisms for supporting sensors/actuators interoperating via different types of wireless networks.

近年来，小型化的进步、低功耗的电路设计、简单、低功耗但相当高效的无线通信设备，以及改进的小规模能源供应，加上制造成本的降低，使一种新的技术愿景成为可能：无线传感器网络。传感器网络由大量的传感器/执行器节点组成，这些节点要么密集地部署在现象内部，要么非常接近现象。不需要设计或预先确定节点的位置。这允许在人迹罕至的地形或救灾行动中随机部署。其目的是开发和促进可扩展和模块化的无线异类传感器/执行器网络在电子社会中的使用。提出的研究是为了从根本上推进我们过去为无线传感器网络应用开发的工具。特别是，重点将放在物联网(IOT)的无线异类传感器网络(WHSN)上。其目标是开发和促进可扩展、模块化、可靠、安全和具有成本效益的WHSN的使用，以满足新兴的电子社会中日益多样化的应用。其目标是开发网络体系结构以及支持协议和算法以及网络控制机制，以支持传感器/执行器通过不同类型的无线网络进行互操作。
