Abstract

Design and prototyping are underway for realization of a concept called community sensor grids. The idea is that individuals or small community agencies may deploy sensors to cover their own property, but also make them available for private as well as public monitoring through Internet connectivity, leveraging the mass deployment and use of sensors to the mainstream. Such transient sensor grids are to be composed of virtual sensor nodes contributed by more than one physical sensornets while offering a common processing view and sharing semantics, in spite of the inherent heterogeneity in ownership, hardware and operating systems for the hosting nodes.
