Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have emerged as an effective solution for some data collection situations. However, owing to combining massively distributed data processing on embedded devices with ad-hoc communication over the wireless medium, WSNs are a challenging domain for application development. In this paper, a communication framework for data collection applications is presented. It provides an adaptive data transport protocol, multi-application running environment, nodes binding mechanisms, which facilitate the development of application systems, and reduces the cost of design and maintain.
