Abstract

This paper presents an application of networked sensors that offers a design pattern for a class of sensor-based embedded systems. It deals with an integrated framework based on smart transducer interface standard (IEEE 1451), on messaging architecture (Compaq-Intel-Microsoft´s Virtual Interface Architecture), and on IP multicast communication, mediating an efficient and unified access from Internet to sensor-based embedded systems and vice versa. The kernel of the paper focuses on utilization of the framework for a computer-based pressure measurement system as a real-world project, stressing its communication architecture. The presented case study demonstrates an application of a novel design pattern aimed at distributed, sensor-based appliances
