The '''Center for Embedded Networked Sensing''' ('''CENS''') was <ref>Award Abstract #0120778, Center for Embedded Networked Sensing (CENS).  https://www.nsf.gov/awardsearch/showAward?AWD_ID=0120778</ref> a [[research]] enterprise funded by the [[National Science Foundation]] based at the [[University of California, Los Angeles]].

CENS was established at UCLA in 2002. The group conducted research primarily in the [[computer science]] subfield of [[Embedded system|embedded]] [[sensor network]]s. While the core research was grounded in computer science, the applications studied spanned a large range of fields including [[military]] applications,  [[ecology]], [[seismology]], [[security]] monitoring, and [[farming]] applications to name just a few. 

While it was headquartered at [[University of California, Los Angeles|UCLA]], the following universities and organizations also participated in CENS-led research:

* [[University of California, Merced]]
* [[University of California, Riverside]]
* [[University of Southern California]]
** The USC [[Information Sciences Institute]]
* [[California State University, Los Angeles]]
* [[James Reserve|The James Reserve]]
* [[NASA]]'s [[Jet Propulsion Laboratory]]
* [[Caltech]]
