. Additionally, in a relatively dense network scenario, the maximum aggregatethroughput of 3 times 7.11/30.8 Mbps is likely to be seriously impaired. To aid the WLANperformance on a factory floor, it is thus advisable to take the following two measures: applymeans to combat the increased delay spread (in case of IEEE 802.11b) and (for all IEEE 802.11systems) carefully plan the frequency layout and access point placement.The newly emerging ZigBee technology has been designed specifically for sensor data andcontrol information at low data rates. ZigBee supports long battery lives. Nothing can be said yetabout the robustness and effectiveness of ZigBee. Yet for low-bit-rate applications in industrialenvironments, ZigBee seems to be a promising approach

At the present time even the term Information Technologyis interpreted differently by many in academia and industry.The development of IT as an academic discipline is similar to the process that Computer Science(CS) went through in the 70's and 80's. In fact, looking at the placement of Computer Scienceprograms in academic institutions around the U.S. illustrates the debate that swirled around thediscipline as its core was being defined. Some CS programs are in departments of Mathematics,others are in Engineering schools, and many others have become freestanding programs withinnewly emerging colleges of computing.Information Technology, as it is
