Abstract
Within the framework of a French project, which aims at developing a new human presence sensor, we intend to design a sensor system simulator. During the establishment of the requirements of that new sensor we raised that the mission of a global scene survey could only be performed by a collection of several systems using very diverse technologies. This article presents the development of a method for the placement of multi-technology and multi-sensor systems. The considered environments are room or set of rooms in office buildings or individual homes. We will explain how we managed to represent the use of different sensors considering their various environments. Then, the way of exploiting these models using genetic algorithms is discussed. Those models are oriented for finding system placement and therefore for helping sensor networks deployment.
