AdaptC: programming adaptation policies for WSN applications
Pages 229 - 235
Abstract
Evolution in both hardware and software technologies has enabled Wireless Sensor Networks(WSNs) to target a multiplicity of domains. Programming for such advanced WSNs remains a challenging process for users, especially as the WSN may need to make changes as per outcomes from different scenarios during execution. Usually, various adaptation policies are written while programming such applications to enable changes. However it is difficult for the programmer to anticipate changes for new scenarios. It also becomes difficult to reuse these adaptation policies. In this paper, we propose AdaptC, an abstraction for such adaptation policies that facilitates re-usability and expansion across various WSNs. We also present concepts for the design and implementation of AdaptC. We evaluate the abstraction for multiple use cases and compare it against existing work.
