INTEGRATION MIDDLEWARE APPARATUS OFA SENSOR NETWORK AND AN RFID SYSTEM FOR UTILIZING THE COLLECTED DATA OF THE HETEROGENEOUS SENSOR NETWORKS

摘要

PURPOSE: An integration middleware apparatus of a sensor network and an RFID system for utilizing the collected data of the heterogeneous sensor networks are provided to share various resources in open environment by supplying common functions for ubiquitous sensor network application services.;CONSTITUTION: A sensor network common interface unit(301) offers interface between a sensor network and an RFID(Radio Frequency Identification System) system. An open application interface unit(101) supports the interface between applications and a middleware. A query processing unit(105) processes sensor data request from application services. A context-aware processing unit(102) supports the decision making of applications. A directory service unit(104) searches the sensor network and services coping with specific application.;COPYRIGHT KIPO 2010
