An Integrated Approach to Developing Sensor Network Solutions

Tags:
monitoring systems

Overview This paper describes a prototype sensor networking platform and its associated development environment. Key elements of the system are the ESB sensor hardware, the Contiki operating system, and the communication stack, which includes a MAC layer and a highly optimized TCP/IP. Because the work is driven by prototype applications being developed by project partners, particular attention is paid to the development environment and to practical deployment issues. Three prototype applications are also presented.

Virtualisation: Architectual Considerations and other Evaluation Criteria

In the past several years, server virtualisation technology has moved quickly and firmly into the IT mainstream. Of the many approaches to system virtualisation available in the market today, VMware's hypervisor architecture has gained the greatest market acceptance. This paper examines the architectural issues, solution support, and enterprise readiness required when deploying such a virtualisation solution.
