The GINSENG project solved the problem of providing performance control for wireless sensor networks, paving the way for commercial applications of this emerging technology for real-time industrial monitoring and control.
The project was selected to exhibit in the “CeBIT Lab”, which played host to technologies classed as being especially innovative. The partners showed a demonstration of the system that they have deployed at the Sines oil refinery in Portugal, interfacing with IT software developed by German company SAP, a project partner.
GINSENG is funded by the European Commission and involves eight partners from Ireland, England, Sweden, Cyprus, Germany, and Portugal.
