A semantic message oriented middleware for wireless sensor networks

Abstract

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) have a gained increasing attention from the research community in recent years, especially for the great potential for distributed applications. They are capable of processing, sensing and transmitting wireless information, generating a large volume of raw data which possess natural heterogeneity. In this context, we are presenting a communication infrastructure, a semantic message oriented middleware for WSN, which provides integrated services in a transparent way with automatic reconfiguration at runtime. Besides, the middleware uses ontologies to process all data, thus creating a semantic database. As result, we present the implementation of the middleware architecture.
