deployment of wireless sensor network functionality.
"We have observed an interesting trend during the first quarter of2008, namely an expansion in the number of approaches to solve theproblem of deploying wireless sensor networks for applications,lacking a ready, convenient or affordable access to mains power,"said Kirsten West, PhD, principal analyst with WTRS. "Overall it isclear that there is demand for solutions that manage the energyconsumed by a wireless sensor network. As the wireless sensornetwork market matures, it is inevitable that demand for low powermanagement will increase significantly."
