“…Instead, they make decisions whether the information should be stored for future use, relayed as they are, or modified by applying computation and aggregation with other data. 15 The central server has been programmed with two algorithms. First is the threshold based algorithm, which attempts to identify the physiological parameter values that are potentially harmful or indicative of immediate danger to the patients.…”

With demographic changes of the aging population and an increasing number of people living alone, pervasive home monitoring is set to play an important role in maintaining the independence and improving the quality of life for elderly persons at a lower cost. The present development of the demography of elderly people in the Western world will generate a shortage of caretakers for elderly people in the near future. The new concept of health monitoring is advanced by which health parameters are automatically monitored at home without disturbing daily activities. The proposed system is a network that supports various wearable sensors and contains on-board general computing capabilities for individual event detection, alerts, and communications with various medical informatics services. The purpose of our system is to provide extended monitoring for elderly patients under drug therapy after infarction, data collection in some particular cases, and remote consultation for elderly people.

“…A previous study on the use of SOAP, as a protocol for data aggregation in WSN, has found that there is considerable overhead on the network resources including the transmission and processing of SOAP messages [13]. The study showed that the use of SOAP message has doubled the round trip times of exchanged messages when compared to transmitting and processing raw, unformatted data.…”

Wireless sensor networks offer an increasingly attractive method for data gathering in distributed system architectures and dynamic access via wireless connectivity. However, wireless sensor networks have limitations with respect to resources and energy consumption, which lead to increased complexity for application developers and often results in applications that are closely coupled with network protocols. One solution for de-coupling applications from the underlying protocols is to use a service-oriented Middleware. However, the limitations make the use of such an approach a challenge due to the overhead of the SOAP protocol. This overhead becomes more significant if the size of the transmitted data is small in comparison to the tagging text, causing nodes with limited power to waste valuable energy. In this paper we discuss the overhead issues associated with using SOAP in wireless sensor networks. We then present two methods for minimizing the effect of the overhead to help in the design of efficient service oriented architectures. Our study shows significant savings in transmission time and message size may be achieved which may be as high as 60% of transmission time or 75% of size in special situations.

Reconfigurable middleware architectures for large scale sensor networks

Wireless sensor networks, in an effort to be energy efficient, typically lack the high-level abstractions of advanced programming languages. Though strong, the dichotomy between these two paradigms can be overcome. The SENSIX software framework, described in this dissertation, uniquely integrates constraint-dominated wireless sensor networks with the flexibility of objectoriented programming models, without violating the principles of either. Though these two computing paradigms are contradictory in many ways, SENSIX bridges them to yield a dynamic middleware abstraction unifying low-level resource-aware task reconfiguration and high-level object recomposition. vii Through the layered approach of SENSIX, the software developer creates a domainspecific sensing architecture by defining a customized task specification and utilizing object inheritance. In addition, SENSIX performs better at large scales (on the order of 1000 nodes or more) than other sensor network middleware which do not include such unified facilities for vertical integration. viii * http://sensix.sourceforge.net
