Integration of NCW Sensor Networks and the Grid
Tihua Yan, Wang Bao-shu · 2006
Sensor networks consist of large numbers of network sensors that can be dynamically deployed in the battlefield and used for situational awareness in network centric warfare (NCW). In this paper, our purpose is to dynamically integrate these sensor networks with grid service to support real-time sensing, exploitation and decision-making in a rich tactical environment. Heterogeneous sensors' capabilities are described with XML so that grid service can be dynamically discovered and used by various end-user and intermediate processing applications. In addition, we simulate our middleware model with the help of GT3.
