This paper argues that service oriented architectures provide a good mechanism for managing outside interaction with software resources on wireless sensor networks. Specifically, this paper introduces a lightweight service platform designed to meet the specific characteristics of wireless sensor networks. The proposed architecture provides lightweight, yet flexible service-level agreements, together with adaptive management of sensor network resources. Critically for resource constrained sensor networks, our framework ensures that services are shared in an optimal manner between multiple client applications, while providing autonomic mechanisms to reason about fault tolerance and optimization. Furthermore, our approach actively promotes point of action processing which provides significant benefits in both embedded and enterprise deployments. We illustrate the appropriateness of the proposed architecture through a prototype implementation and evaluation using the LooCI component model and the SunSPOT platform.
