A Policy Based Wireless Sensor Network Management Architecture
Wenbo Zhang, Haifeng Xu · 2010
Different from the conventional network, the wireless sensor network is deployed in the extreme situation. Its power supply and other resources are very limited, so the traditional network management architecture is not suitable to the wireless sensor network. Policy-based wireless sensor network management architecture is put forward. Distribution of management functionality and clustering for WSN management are applied in the new architecture. Furthermore the management hierarchy maintenance and cluster maintenance are also included in the architecture.
