Application Platform of Heterogeneous Wireless Sensor Networks

This paper presents an application platform for heterogeneous wireless sensor networks (WSNs) and a management architecture to this network. The purpose of this platform is to provide both academia and industry a large-scale experimental environment to test and to verify their newly developed WSN systems in the future. In a first step two types of application scenario have been depicted. The next steps sensor nodes have been presented. Based on the management tasks required in a heterogeneous WSN, management architecture has been defined. To this end, some future work is introduced.
