Information fusion techniques applied to Shared Sensor and Actuator Networks

Abstract

This work presents an adaptation (and enhancement) of a well-known fusion technique in order to deal with multiple applications simultaneously in a context of Shared Sensor and Actuator Networks (SSAN). SSAN allow the sensing infrastructure to be shared among multiple applications that can potentially belong to different users instead of assuming an application-specific network design. We also present simulation and tests conducted with the proposed solution on real nodes to validate our proposal.
