2007-08 Program on Environmental Sensor Networks

Course Name: Sensor Networks for Environmental Modeling

Lead Instructors: Carla Ellis, Duke Professor of Computer Science
Additional Duke Faculty from engineering, statistics, and ecology as well as various guest lecturers will also present.

Course Day and Time: Tuesday 4:30 - 7:00, beginning August 28, 2007
Room 104 NISS Building

Short Course Description: This course will cover the entire range of technical issues that must be addressed to effectively use sensor networks to study the environment - from the design of the sensor nodes that will capture the data of interest to the modeling that yields information to the environmental scientists. A running theme will be provided by the sensor network deployment in Duke Forest (including a site visit) and working with the data gathered there.
