Honeywell Sensing and Control business (S&C) is enabling its portfolio of sensors for integration into wireless sensor networks by incorporating Crossbow’s wireless sensor networks platform into its XBW product line.

Because hard-wired, traditional control or sensing applications can be difficult and expensive, Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) can deliver significant cost savings and improved operational efficiencies. Now Honeywell’s customers can easily develop cost effective sensor solutions using reliable wireless sensor components integrated directly into enterprise information and management systems. The XBW product line is now available through S&C’s direct sales and distributor channel.

CiteULike is a free service to help academics to share, store, and organise the academic papers they are reading. When you see a paper on the web that interests you, you can click one button and have it added to your personal library. CiteULike automatically extracts the citation details, so there’s no need to type them in yourself. It all works from within your web browser. There’s no need to install any special software.

Because your library is stored on the server, you can access it from any computer. You can share you library with others, and find out who is reading the same papers as you. In turn, this can help you discover literature which is relevant to your field but you may not have known about.

EWSN 2007, the European conference on Wireless Sensor Networks, is the fourth of a series of annual meetings focusing on the latest research in the rapidly growing area of wireless sensor networks. EWSN 2007 will be held at Delft University of Technology, Delft, The Netherlands, on January 29-31, 2007.
The goal of this conference is to create a forum where researchers with different experience and background, from hardware to applications, can discuss cross-layer integration, novel solutions for specific problems and envisage the future development of WSN functionalities.
Call for papers is available here.
