JADE agents used for Wireless Sensors control: System based on services

Abstract

This particular paper describes our most recent work on our system called JAWS. This system is intended to control and monitor Wireless Sensor Network. In principle, JAWS is agent system built on JADE platform. It consists of several agents that are able to communicate with Wireless Sensor Nodes. Via communication, we are able to obtain values from particular sensor nodes called motes. We are also able to inject mobile code to each mote so we can basically change behaviour of that mote and in extension of whole network. In this paper we explain our use of concept of services in our system. As will be shown, services are natural and most viable concept in our approach to control and monitor Wireless Sensor Network. We will briefly describe basic concepts of our system and explain all kinds of services that can be used within our system, which is the most narrow scope of this paper. We also describe few protocols that we use and that are bound to services.
