  1. 1. Traffic Analysis, Modeling and Their Applications in Energy-Constrained Wireless Sensor Networks : On Network Optimization and Anomaly Detection

    Author : Qinghua Wang; Tingting Zhang; Stefan Pettersson; Youzhi Xu; Yan Zhang; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Wireless sensor network; traffic analysis; network optimization; anomaly detection; Computer and systems science; Data- och systemvetenskap;

    Abstract : Wireless sensor network (WSN) has emerged as a promising technology thanks to the recent advances in electronics, networking, and information processing. A wide range of WSN applications have been proposed such as habitat monitoring, environmental observations and forecasting systems, health monitoring, etc. READ MORE

  2. 2. Connecting the dots : Network analysis, landscape ecology, and practical application

    Author : Andreas Zetterberg; Berit Balfors; Ulla Mörtberg; Per-Erik Jansson; Sandra Luque; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Landscape connectivity; Land-use planning; Urban and regional planning; Graph theory; Network analysis; Environmental assessment; Least-cost modeling; Biodiversity;

    Abstract : Humans have a profound impact on ecosystems, and land-use change constitutes a primary driving force in the loss of biodiversity. Habitat loss and fragmentation are key factors in this process by seriously impeding the habitat availability and movement of species, leading to a significant decrease in population viability.

    Author : Dorothy Furberg; Yifang Ban; Xiaojun Yang; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Urbanization; remote sensing; land-cover classification; landscape metrics; environmental indicators; environmental impact; ecosystem services; green infrastructure; habitat network analysis; Greater Toronto Area; Stockholm; Shanghai; urbanisering; fjärranalys; marktäckeklassificering; landskapsnyckeltal; miljöindikatorer; miljöpåverkan; ekosystemtjänster; grön infrastruktur; habitat nätverksanalys; Greater Toronto Area; Stockholm; Shanghai; Geodesy and Geoinformatics; Geodesi och geoinformatik; Geoinformatik; Geoinformatics;

    Abstract : As of 2018, 55% of the world population resides in urban areas. This proportion is projected to increase to 68% by 2050 (United Nations 2018). The Stockholm region is no exception to this urbanizing trend: the population of Stockholm City has risen by 28% since the year 2000. READ MORE

  4. 4. Network Based Tools and Indicators for Landscape Ecological Assessments, Planning, and Design
