SAT – Sensor Networks

The Sensors and Sensor Networks (SSN) SAT aims to serve as a community platform to foster internationalization of research, showcase innovations worldwide, build and lead new and innovative technologies related to sensors and sensor networks while nurturing a close relation between theoretical and practical aspects of research and development. The goal of the SSN SAT is to emerge as the leading technical society on sensors, sensor networks, and related topics that will emerge in the future. The SSN SAT will strive to reach these goals through organization of technical conferences and meetings, journal publications, and local initiatives across the globe.
