In this paper, we propose adaptation mechanisms for sensor networks. The existing researches on security for sensor networks have mostly concerned with confidentiality, integrity and authentication based on cryptographic mechanisms. These aspects of security are important but not enough to provide survivability of sensor networks. In this paper, we employ the software rejuvenation and reconfiguration methodology to increase the survivability of sensor nodes in sensor networks. The model uses global or local intrusion detection systems and performs 4 strategies to extend the availability of sensor nodes in sensor networks. We propose a general framework and its methodology and the security analysis and evaluation results show the feasibility of our approach.

Abstract-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 objective for software management in sensor networks is to enable a robust and efficient way to build deployable software images that take into account all the needs from application requirements to node-specific resource restrictions. In this article, we outline the current state-of-theart for software management in WSN and (network-based) sensor network (re-)programming. We provide insights into three different approaches enabling a more comprehensive management of WSN while challenging the robustness and efficiency of software configurations and reprogramming. Additionally, we outline research challenges in the area of software management and sensor network operation.

“…Due to limited resources, sensor nodes are usually able to run a single task only. We developed a framework consisting of three methods for SW management in heterogeneous networks: (1) profile matching using light-weight RPCs and dynamic addressing as a helper function, (2) dynamic on-demand code generation, and (3) network-centric reprogramming [3].…”

The heterogeneity and dynamics in terms of hardware and software configurations is steadily increasing in sensor networks. Therefore, software management is becoming one of the most prominent challenges in this domain. We developed a profilebased software management scheme that consists of a dynamic profile-matching algorithm to identify current SW/HW configurations, an on-demand code generation module, and mechanisms for dynamic network-centric reprogramming of sensor nodes. In this demo, we will dynamic node reprogramming based on given objectives (global goals), available sensor nodes, and RPC-style profile matching algorithms. A mobile robot system is employed for decision processes and to store the source code repository. Additionally, techniques for dynamic addressing are included to prevent global pre-configuration of all network nodes.
