Abstract
This chapter is a review of how computational intelligence methods have been used to help design various types of sensor networks. We examine wireless sensor networks, fixed sensor networks, mobile ad hoc networks and cellular networks. The goal of this review is to describe the state of the art in using computational intelligence methods for sensor network design, to identify current research challenges and suggest possible future research directions.
