"Wireless sensor networks are essential components to support Industry 4.0 operations in factories for process monitoring and control. Associated technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS), and edge technologies such as IEEE 1451 smart sensors and actuators make the concept of smart factory a reality. This is a multidisciplinary research field, through which it is possible to achieve significant progress. The availability of information enables manufacturers to optimize their processes quickly and efficiently. Through intelligent sensor networks, it is possible to acquire the necessary information for collaboration in various production processes. In this scenario, the adoption of wireless networks with a high number of nodes and some of them with energy usage restrictions, has given rise to the development of new energy harvesting methods and associated energy management mechanisms. On the other hand, the cooperation of various elements in the network is only possible if standards are adopted to promote device and system integration and interoperability. This special session aims to provide a forum for discussion that will attract scholars and industry practitioners to share and discuss latest advances in this scientific field.
Topics in this session include, but are not limited to:
- Smart Sensor Digital Twin
- Measurements for sensor networks
- Smart sensors and transducers
- Low power wireless sensors
- Testing and simulation techniques for sensors
- Smart sensor modelling and design techniques
- Security issues in Sensor Networks
- Digital Calibration, E‐calibration and auto‐traceability
- Signal processing for Sensor Networks
- Parallel and distributed measurement systems
- Sensor reliability and maintenance
- New educational technologies for wireless sensing in Industry 4.0
- Standards, test, and certification in Sensor Networks - edge computing
- Smart Communication
