MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTIONS WITH ANSWERS ON WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORKS 1. WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORKS 1 CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 1MEMS stands for 2A sensor network is subject to a unique set of resource constraints such as a: finite on-board battery power b: limited network communication bandwidth Ans: (a/b/both) 3In a typical sensor network, each sensor node operates unethered and has a. The combination of a virtual processor, a memory area, some data streams, and an isolated region of long-term storage is known as a virtual machine. Long-term storage does, however, force us to face one further issue. Suppose that the virtual machine communicates with its user through a typewriter terminal.

Description
Virtual Machine technology applies the concept of virtualization to an entire machine, circumventing real machine compatibility constraints and hardware resource constraints to enable a higher degree of software portability and flexibility. Virtual machines are rapidly becoming an essential element in computer system design. They provide system security, flexibility, cross-platform compatibility, reliability, and resource efficiency. Designed to solve problems in combining and using major computer system components, virtual machine technologies play a key role in many disciplines, including operating systems, programming languages, and computer architecture. For example, at the process level, virtualizing technologies support dynamic program translation and platform-independent network computing. At the system level, they support multiple operating system environments on the same hardware platform and in servers. Historically, individual virtual machine techniques have been developed within the specific disciplines that employ them (in some cases they aren’t even referred to as “virtual machines”), making it difficult to see their common underlying relationships in a cohesive way. In this text, Smith and Nair take a new approach by examining virtual machines as a unified discipline. Pulling together cross-cutting technologies allows virtual machine implementations to be studied and engineered in a well-structured manner. Topics include instruction set emulation, dynamic program translation and optimization, high level virtual machines (including Java and CLI), and system virtual machines for both single-user systems and servers.
