Abstract
By harvesting energy from their local environment, sensor networks can achieve much greater run-times, years not months, with potentially lower cost and weight. At Australia??s Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO), we are developing tools to help sensor network designers power sensor networks for prolonged periods of time.
