We propose a MDA approach to develop WSN applications, which allows domain experts to contribute in the development of applications without needing knowledge on WSN platforms and allows network experts to program nodes to met application requirements without specific knowledge on the domain. Our approach also promotes reuse, allowing an application model to be reused across different sensor platforms...
Nowadays micro and movable devices are widely used in many fields. In these fields, many data message exist. The fourth generation data mining software is trying to analysis data in these areas. The problems we need to solve are changing as the time past, to design a system which can be working longer, it must be adaptive. SOA is becoming to be the standard of appliance software on enterprise level...
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) has the potential to enrich society with some benefits, better engineering, productivity, and improved security. The main goal of energy management architecture applied in networks is to be able to allow an efficient way to enhance sensor node energy autonomy. Nowadays, there are many open issues in WSN. One of them is the energy consumption management. The sensor node...
The upcoming expansion of wireless communications and sensing technologies facilitated and produced the need for devices that can obtain measurement of physical variables and exchange information over the air. This paper will present hardware realization cycle, features and basic software architecture of one implemented, small-size wireless sensor network node with low power consumption and battery...
In the current decade, substantial growth in number of wireless sensor network deployments to sense a wide array of data ranging from environmental to healthcare is observed. As these WSNs are designed with the goal to serve their own organisation without futuristic idea of sharing the data with others, their architectures pose a limitation to the purpose of collaboration. A design is presented in...
In this paper, a software product line (SPL) architecture that explicitly captures common features of realtime object tracking systems using Cricket wireless sensors is presented. A software product line process is also presented including user requirements, architecture design, component development, and systems integration. The focus lies on the application of SPL to object location tracking, such...
Advancements in the MEMS technology, improved deployment strategies and sensor Web enablement standards, have facilitated the realisation of pervasive and ubiquitous computing through more and more sensor networks. Research community is straining hard to establish world wide sensor networks that may provide functionalities similar to those available through Internet and World Wide Web. A serious look...
Wireless sensor and actor networks are potentially one of the most important technologies of this century. There are many fields where they can be used in order to develop varied and interesting applications: high security environments, environmental monitoring, objects and events detection, military surveillance and precision agriculture. On the other hand, the ease of programming is a major barrier...
Sensor network applications are executed in diverse scenarios, different platforms and in an uncontrolled environment. The data aggregation and then handling the data at the middleware demands an approach to integrate functionalities of various interests from diverse network clusters. So instead of a proprietary solution for individual problems, it is desirable to have a platform independent service...
Service-oriented wireless sensor network (WSN) has been recently proposed as an architecture to rapidly develop applications in WSNs. In WSNs, a query task may require a set of services and may be carried out repetitively with a given frequency during its lifetime. A service composition solution shall be provided for each execution of such a persistent query task. Due to the energy saving strategy,...
ScatterClipse is a generative plugin-oriented tool-chain for the model-driven development of the applications running on the sensor boards of our WSN-platform ScatterWeb. The goal is the furthermost automated and standardized generation of software system families for the ScatterWeb sensor boards. The ScatterClipse's novel approach lies in the accomplishment of the integration of visual automated...
Owing to the limited requirement for sensor processing in early networked sensor nodes, embedded software was generally built around the communication stack. Modern sensor nodes have evolved to contain significant on-board functionality in addition to communications, including sensor processing, energy management, actuation and locationing. The embedded software for this functionality, however, is...
This paper discusses an innovative extension of a platform that integrates external intelligent environments into state-of-the-art vehicles. The platform is dedicated to automotive environments for sensor networks focusing on distribution along a personal area vehicle network. Since the platform infrastructure is currently limited and forms a non scalable process unit, an embedded OSGi-based UPnP...
Designing reliable software for sensor networks is challenging because application developers have little visibility into, and understanding of the post-deployment behavior of code executing on resource constrained nodes in remote and ill-reproducible environments. To address this problem, this paper presents HERMES, a lightweight framework and prototype tool that provides fine-grained visibility...
A wireless sensor network consists of many sensors that collect and transmit physical or environmental conditions at different locations to a server continuously. Many researches mainly focus on processing continuous queries on real-time data stream. However, they do not concern the problem of storing the historical data, which is mandatory to the historical queries. In this paper, we propose a system...
We consider the challenge of enhancing sensor networks for surveillance and global security with increased distributed data processing capabilities, including multi-sensor fusion, data aggregation or mining, and rule-based alert generation. We advocate a novel architecture that will enable the creation of more resilient and complex monitoring applications. We exemplify its benefits in a chemical accident...
This paper deals with sensor networking based on ZigBee and Internet using IEEE 1451 smart transducer interface architecture. The contribution begins with introduction to the IEEE 1451 smart transducer - network interface for sensors and actuators as an emerging, standard-based networking framework. Next part of the paper reviews some concepts of ZigBee architecture aimed at connecting wireless sensors...
A wireless sensor network designed according to the sensor network with mobile agents (SENMA) architecture is engaged in a detection task, with a mobile agent (MA) that sequentially queries the networks nodes. The focus is on the effect of censoring: sensors respond to the query from the MA only if the local observations are deemed sufficiently informative; otherwise, they stay silent. Delivered data,...
Software deployment and updating of deployed code is a critical topic in the area of wireless sensor networks (WSN). Reasons are unreliable network connectivity, resource limitations of devices, and energy restrictions in general. Consequently, software deployment has to be performed with great care otherwise resources might be wasted or nodes become unavailable due to failed updates. The overall...
With the wide application of wireless sensor networks, the surveillance of wireless sensor networks itself has drawn more and more attention. Based on sensor nodes under TinyOS, we develop a monitoring and control platform called MotePlat to facilitate our development of WSN application systems. MotePlat employs a three-tier application framework and adopts an agent mechanism in the software architecture...
