Abstract :
This demonstration presents the ongoing development of a framework for a global wireless sensor / actuator network (GWSAN). This GWSAN is formed through the interconnection of about 10 WSAN testbeds currently mainly located in Asia and Europe. GWSANs are one of the enabler for the Internet of Things and thus the Web of Things. Similar to the beginning of the Internet in the late 70s this GWSAN is a research network. Topics of the joint research and development activities include management, maintenance and interoperability. Therefore algorithms and autonomous / automatic configuration mechanisms are implemented and tested as well as remote software updates in distributed WSANs. Furthermore, graphical interfaces for the management and the interaction with GWSAN are part of the development.
