Abstrakt: As sensor network deployments continue to expand, government agencies will benefit from the transmission and processing of sensor data aimed at enhancing public safety and utility services. Oak Ridge National Laboratory's SensorNet project is building a vendor-neutral interoperability framework based on emerging standards for plug-n-play access, control, and integration of online sensors, sensor-derived data repositories, and sensor-related processing capabilities [3]. Focussing on wide-area deployments and on a broad class of sensors and applications, the system prototypes communicate and analyze data from transducers (sensorsSensor and Transducer are terms used interchangeably in the community because of the legacy connotations of the former. and actuators) using mechanisms that allow disparate entities to alert each other and share critical information. Deploying operational prototypes allows us to instantiate and field building block components early while collecting a broad range of user feedback in our incremental development.
