NanoMon: An Adaptable Sensor Network Monitoring Software
Misun Yu, Haeyong Kim, Pyeongsoo Mah · 2007
In this paper, we present a sensor network monitoring software, named NanoMon, which has a flexible architecture and supports for various user requirements of sensor network applications in an adaptive manner. With NanoMon, users can specify custom GUI plug-ins and internal module parameters by using a simply describable configuration file; and it can be automatically integrated to NanoMon framework to support user-specific sensor network applications. NanoMon employs a widely used database MySQL, to concurrently and correctly manage sensing data and node information of several types of sensor network applications. To show flexibility and adaptability of NanoMon, we implemented two WSN applications- home monitoring and parking lot monitoring systems. By selecting a WSN application name specified in the configuration file, users can easily and dynamically change GUI and internal module parameters such as sensor types and database locations of NanoMon used to display the status of WSN.
