Sensor information networking architecture and applications

Abstract

This article introduces a sensor information networking architecture, called SINA, that facilitates querying, monitoring, and tasking of sensor networks. SINA plays the role of a middleware that abstracts a network of sensor nodes as a collection of massively distributed objects. The SINA's execution environment provides a set of configuration and communication primitives that enable scalable and energy-efficient organization of and interactions among sensor objects. On top the execution environment is a programmable substrate that provides mechanisms to create associations and coordinate activities among sensor nodes. Users then access information within a sensor network using declarative queries, or perform tasks using programming scripts. SINA-A Middleware Architecture Conceptually, a sensor network is modeled as a collection of massively distributed objects. SINA plays the role of a middleware, allowing sensor applications to issue queries and command tasks into, collect replies and results from, and monitor changes within the networks (Figure 1(A)). SINA modules, running on each ¡ This research was presented in part at the International Workshop on Pervasive Computing, August 2000.

A QoS-driven Self-Adaptive Architecture for Wireless Sensor Networks

“…However, some work began to consider the property of adaptability; they present only a simple tuning and adjustment. SINA [11] is an example of a database-based middleware for sensor networks that facilitates querying and monitoring network nodes. It includes two low-level mechanisms for sensors managing.…”

Cost-Efficient Data Collection Approach Using K-Nearest Neighbors in a 3D Sensor Network

“…1 Single Shot KNN queries are issued once and the results are computed based on the response. A subsequent KNN query is not issued from the same location.…”

“…Sensor network comprises tiny battery powered devices with ad-hoc communication capability [1] distributed within an area working together to achieve single or multiple goals. These characteristics of sensor network give rise to data collection problems.…”

The Up-to-Date Progression and Prospect Drift of Wireless Sensor Networks

“…The new developments must be fused quickly into a complete basic designing to meet the requirements of present time. Change in conditions care or awareness [6] is must essential.
