A group of wireless devices with the ability to sense physical events (sensors) or/and to perform relatively complicated actions (actors), is referred to as Wireless Sensor and Actor Network (WSAN). In this work, we propose and implement two Fuzzy Based Actor Selection Systems (FBASS): FBASS1 and FBASS2 for actor selection in WSANs. The systems decide whether the actor will be selected for the required job or not, based on data supplied by sensors and actual actor condition. We evaluated the proposed system by computer simulations. Comparing FBASS1 with FBASS2, the FBASS2 is more complex than FBASS1, because it has more rules in FRB. By increasing node density, the FBASS2 can save better the energy.
