(IME - 2010/2011 - 1ª FASE) 

Soon enough, say some engineers, miniature wireless sensors will be located in spots where it would be inconvenient, to say the least, to change their batteries – inside your body, within the steel and concrete of buildings, in the dangerous innards of chemical plants. But today, even the most robust nodes can be counted on to last only a few years. Ideally, engineers need wireless sensors that can last forever without external power sources or battery changes. According to research presented in December at the International Electron Devices Meeting, in Baltimore, that dream is within reach. 

 

The expression ‘to say the least’ in the text suggests that… 

A
the situation mentioned may be more than just inconvenient.  
B
there is a list of technological researches that could solve the case presented in the text. . 
C
sensors used inside human body are inconvenient. 
D
wireless sensors used within the steel and concrete buildings are a reachable dream. 
E
engineers need a sensor that can last forever without external power sources or battery changes
