Chulsung Park, Qiang Xie, Pai H. Chou, Masanobu Shinozuka · 2006
DuraNode is a sensor node for real-time monitoring the health of civil engineering structures such as highway bridges and skyscrapers. It is specially designed to take civil engineers' requirements into account. To meet their requirements DuraNode has a dual-microcontroller architecture sharing a FIFO memory. Evaluation shows that DuraNode has many distinguished features over other sensor nodes such as high power-efficiency, low jitter, and high network performance.
