Abstract
Even though there is significant research work performed in the fields of wireless sensor networks, civil infrastructure reliability and management, most of the work is fragmented and there is no significant activity in performing multidisciplinary structured research for developing integrated smart and dynamic systems for effective management of the built and natural environment. The aim of SmartEN is to push innovation through the development of a research training network that will focus on the development and effective integration of emerging technologies targeting key application areas of current interest to Europe and the world.
