Data integration mechanism for agent-based sensor network middleware
Jong-Wan Yoon, Byung-Hyug Lee, Dong-Ryeol Shin · 2010
The goal of this paper is to propose a way to processing data from service providing networks using reputation mechanism to user application in agent-based network environment. In this process, it must concern about a lot of sensor network because sensor networks are quite different about data format, protocol, and so on. To alleviate this heterogeneity, we propose data integration mechanism that can convert gathered data from various data gathering network to unified data format. In the agent-based network environment consist of a number of agents and it cooperate each other for establishing their own target but it has problem about lack of reliability. To treat this problem, we propose data integration mechanism for agent-based sensor network middleware to provide enhanced data processing for user application.
