“…The first will enable long-range communication, between DCNs and each other, and DCN to sink. Two viable candidates are WiFi or DASH7, as both could sustain long range communication with varying power demands [9]. For example, a typical DASH7-compliant transceiver would achieve a range of 1000m, since it operates on a lower frequency band; 433MHz.…”

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are approaching an operational stalemate. While sheer emphasis on energy efficiency and resilience aid network longevity, WSNs face many hindering design principals. Prominently, an application-oriented view that isolates WSNs from ubiquitous networks, and nodes with static hardware and functional goals. We present a novel paradigm in the design of WSNs. Our goal is to achieve a resilient architecture that decouples operational mandates from the nodes. We present wirelessly interfaced components, which introduce functionality physically decoupled from the sensing nodes; boosting resilience, dynamicity and resource utilization. This approach dissects the study of nodal capacity to its "connected" components. It also enables re-introducing only the components required to suffice for network operation. More importantly, critical resources in the network will be shared within their neighborhoods. Thus network lifetime will relate to functional cliques of dynamic nodes. We present our paradigms with insights into application and design novelty.

“…To enable dynamic reconfiguration of the WSAN node's HW structure, the platforms presented in [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25] are assembled out of the functional modules, number of which ranges between two in [24] and seven in [21]). The different modules featuring specific functionalities (e.g., temperature sensing, energy harvesting or additional memory) are attached to the core module that hosts the main processor and, optionally, a radio and a primary power source.…”

In this paper we address the problem of increasing the flexibility of the contemporary wireless sensor and actuator networks (WSANs) in regard to the design of the nodes. For this we propose the concept of a Plug&Play enabled modular WSAN node platform. According to our concept, the new WSAN nodes with desired functionalities can be built by stacking together the different hardware modules encapsulating power sources, processing units, wired and wireless transceivers, sensors and actuators, or even sets of these. Once a node is built, it automatically discovers and identifies all the connected hardware modules, obtains required software and tunes its own operation taking into account the node's structure, available resources and active applications. In this paper we first present the concept and then report the developed hardware and software architectures and the most critical mechanisms enabling implementation. Also we discuss the practical implementations and report the evaluation results for the prototyped solution. Our results show that the developed platform is much more feature and resource rich than the existing ones, which is achieved at a cost of increased consumption and size. We believe that the unique features of the proposed platform have the potential to drastically change the procedure of WSAN development, especially when it comes to experimenting and developing dynamic WSANs with a heterogeneous structure. In this respect the hardware identification and reconfiguration capabilities conceived in the platform can be utilized in full and may drastically increase the performance of WSANs, if combined with novel control and optimization schemes yet to be developed.

Abstract-The Internet is smoothly migrating from an Internet of people towards an Internet of Things (IoT). By 2020, it is expected to have 50 billion things connected to the Internet. However, such a migration induces a strong level of complexity when handling interoperability between the heterogeneous Internet things, e.g., RFIDs (Radio Frequency Identification), mobile handheld devices, and wireless sensors. In this context, a couple of standards have been already set, e.g., IPv6, 6LoWPAN (IPv6 over Low power Wireless Personal Area Networks), and M2M (Machine to Machine communications). In this paper, we focus on the integration of wireless sensor networks into IoT, and shed further light on the subtleties of such integration. We present a real-world test bed deployment where wireless sensors are used to control electrical appliances in a smart building. Encountered problems are highlighted and suitable solutions are presented.
