Abstract: | An emerging area in ubiquitous computing is networked sensor systems. The typical approach is to connect sensor-actuator devices using classic network infrastructures at a low level. These networks can serve as infrastructures to dynamically integrate, sensors and actuators into complex interactive systems while providing convenient services and interfaces to users. A prominent scenario for ubiquitous computing and ad hoc networking is an in-house environment using smart sensor system. Shaman, an extendable Java-based service gateway for networked sensor systems, integrates small network-attached sensor-actuator modules (SAMs) into heterogeneous, high-level networking communities. The system unburdens its connected SAMs by transferring functionality from the SAMs to the gateway. |
