One of the leading challenges for pervasive computing is to ease the application development to smoothly handle the surrounding environment. We consider the case where the environment produces heterogeneous and continuous data, e. g. temperature readings, car positions... We have defined a scenario for containers transportation tracking in a medical context involving the transportation of fragile biological matter in sensor-enhanced containers. This scenario has been simulated as a testbed and offers a very nice setting to measure the agility of data-centric application development. On top of this scenario, we have built a pervasive application using a Pervasive Environment Management System called SoCQ (Service oriented Continuous Queries). SoCQ provides a data-oriented perspective of the pervasive environment, mixing classical data, streams and functionalities. For the demo, our objective is twofold: first, from the application developer point of view, she has access to the underlying SoCQ-schema and she may pose her own SQL-like queries to the simulated environment. Second, from the end-user point of view, she may quite easily interact with the environment either through a general dynamic visualization with Google Maps of hospitals, cars moving along roads and medical containers waiting or being transported, or by getting SMS notifications on her own phone of results of predefined queries.
