Autonomic networks are able to monitor and control themselves without direct human intervention. The smallest unit of an autonomic network is the autonomic element (AE). This work presents the model and evaluation of a specific wireless sensor network (WSNs) AE, called autonomic sensor element (ASE). The ASE has been proposed considering WSNs hardware, software, communication and energy restrictions.
