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.******We plan to address and investigate challenges facing designers in establishing such networks within the framework of the IOT. The focus will be on a number of applications such as smart grid, intelligent vehicular networks, and telemedicine. Depending on the application, one or more wireless network technology, such WiMax, WiFi, ad hoc networks, along with wireless mesh, Internet access and LTE cellular systems would be deployed. It is part of the research objective to investigate tools and techniques for the development of different WHSN applications. To achieve this goal, we will be working on six different themes: 1) ICT in sustainable energy smart grid; 2) Cognitive radio for mobility and radio resource management; 3) Mobile cloud computing architecture and system design; 4) Network security and privacy; 5) Self-organized, distributed systems and Software Defined Networks; and 6) Test-bed development. Performance evaluation methods for various architectures, protocols, algorithms, and software applications will be carried out using analytical and simulation approaches as well as actual emulation and lab measurements over wireless sensor network test-beds.**

近年来，小型化的进步；低功率电路设计；简单，低功率，但效率合理的无线通信设备；改善的小规模能源供应与制造成本降低相结合，使新的技术愿景成为可能：无线传感器网络。传感器网络由大量传感器/执行器节点组成，这些传感器/执行器节点密集地部署在现象中或非常接近它。节点的位置不必进行设计或预先确定。这允许在无法访问的地形或救灾操作中随机部署。目的是在电子社会中开发和促进使用可扩展和模块化的无线异质传感器/执行器网络。拟议的研究是从根本上推进我们过去为无线传感器网络应用程序开发的工具。特别是，重点将放在物联网（IoT）的无线异质传感器网络（WHSN）上。目的是开发和促进使用可扩展，模块化，可靠，安全和成本效益的WHSN，以满足新兴电子社会中种类越来越多的应用。目的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。重点将放在许多应用程序上，例如智能电网，智能车辆网络和远程医疗。根据应用程序的不同，将部署一种或多种无线网络技术，例如WIMAX，WIFI，临时网络，以及无线网格，Internet访问和LTE蜂窝系统。研究目标的一部分是研究开发不同WHSN应用程序的工具和技术。为了实现这一目标，我们将致力于六个不同的主题：1）ICT可持续能源智能电网； 2）流动性和无线电资源管理的认知无线电； 3）移动云计算体系结构和系统设计； 4）网络安全和隐私； 5）自组织，分布式系统和软件定义的网络； 6）测试床的开发。各种架构，协议，算法和软件应用程序的性能评估方法将使用分析和仿真方法以及无线传感器网络测试床的实际仿真和实验室测量进行。**
