“…This data clearly affects the energy consumption. Beside the structure and the behaviour of the WSN, useful application layer information can be the used aggregation protocol 15 [31,52] (if any), the type of operating system, the type of middleware (if any) and so on.…”

This paper proposes A4WSN, an architecture-driven modelling platform for the development and the analysis of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). A WSN consists of spatially distributed sensor nodes that cooperate in order to accomplish a specific task. Sensor nodes are cheap, small, and battery-powered devices with limited processing capabilities and memory. WSNs are mostly developed directly on the top of the operating system. They are tied to the hardware configuration of the sensor nodes and their design and implementation can require cooperation with a myriad of system stakeholders with different backgrounds. WSNs peculiarities and current development practices bring a number of challenges, ranging from hardware-software coupling, limited reuse, late WSNs quality property assessment. As a way to overcome a number of existing limitations, this study presents a multi-view modelling approach that supports the development and analysis of WSNs. The framework uses different models to describe the software architecture, hardware configuration, and physical deployment of a WSN. A4WSN

To meet future demands for wireless sensor network (WSN) software, both experts and average software developers should be involved in WSN software development. However, WSN software development is difficult for the average software developer because data processing-related design and network-related design are tangled in the software. Here, we propose a software development process for WSN software by stepwise refinement. Our process enables stepwise refinement to separately address data processing-related and network-related concerns, reuse of well-defined designs, and implementations for network-related concerns prepared by the experts, and perform model-driven development to obtain source codes from models by model transformations. Additionally, we used case studies using actual WSN software development and user studies to evaluate how our proposed process can support actual WSN software development.Index Terms-Domain-specific languages (DSLs), model-driven development (MDD), software development process, wireless sensor networks (WSNs).

“…The framework supports code generation for two low-level platforms, TinyOS and SunSPOT. LWiSSy [4] provides their DSLs from multiple views (i.e., structure, behavior, and optimization views) toward the MDA framework like Rodrigues'. Though these approaches contribute to a portability at OS-level, they do not achieve to port WSN software between diverse platforms.…”

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) play important roles in systems that interact with the real world (e.g., cyberphysical systems and internet of things). To mitigate the complex nature of WSNs, many platforms at different abstraction levels (e.g., abstraction of hardware, communications, and individual nodes) have been proposed in the last decade. WSNs in different environments might employ different platforms to satisfy nonfunctional requirements (NFRs) because the diversity of platforms results in trade-offs of NFRs and the quality of WSN heavily depends on the environment it runs. Although WSN software should be highly portable, existing approaches only support porting between operating systems and not more abstract middleware. Herein we propose a methodology with a framework to capture various platforms in the WSN domain with platformindependent multi-level models. A case study demonstrates that our framework can port WSN software to platforms at different abstraction levels and adapt the software to the new platform to improve performance.
