Antonio Guerrieri, Luca Geretti, Giancarlo Fortino, Antonio Abramo · 2013
This paper proposes a service-oriented gateway architecture for remote monitoring and control of wireless sensor and actuator networks (WSAN). It is specifically designed to enable multi-user, remote monitoring and automation of even complex buildings. The gateway can be effectively exploited to manage energy, comfort, structural health, safety and security of buildings as well as social interactions among building inhabitants. The proposed architecture stands out by leveraging modern web-based approaches like RESTful access and WebSocket sessions. The paper describes the capabilities of the management framework, introduces the remote commands available and also shows a reference implementation of a remote graphical user interface (GUI).
