    "...the whole day session devoted to wireless at last month's Pharmatex conference in Cork, Ireland, came just days after ratification of WirelessHART by the HART Founda- tion. As a result the presence among the platform speakers both of Dust Networks marketing vice president Steve Toteda and of ABB's Gareth Johnston, one of the authors of the standard, ensured a rush of late registrations and a large audience who demonstrated both their enthusiasm for the technology and their understand- ing of its potential by staying right to the end and giving the chairman an easy time through the quality and quantity of ques- tions from the floor.
    Further spice was added to the pro- ceedings by presentations from both Emerson and Honeywell, as well as from Phoenix Contact. However there was also a valuable reminder that, while the main- stream process automation vendors are understandably focussed on the potential benefits of wireless enabled versions of conventional field devices, the full range of potential applications of the technology is considerably wider.
    Presentations from both Adaptive Wire- less Solutions, EMEA agents for Sensicast, and from GE Sensors, highlighted a range of applications from monitoring the envi- ronment in mobile cages housing geneti- cally modified laboratory animals to FDA validated temperature monitoring as an alternative to conventional wired thermo- couple systems, all of which underlined the extraordinary resilience and versatil- ity of self-healing wireless mesh network technology."
