Monitoring and control systems deal with complicated issues such as integration of heterogeneous components and management of different acquisition devices. The paper introduces the Kaleidoscope reference architecture for monitoring and control systems and exemplifies how it supports these issues. The architecture has been exploited in an indoor environmental monitoring system named RAID (Rilevamento dati Ambientali con Interfaccia DECT). The system is based on innovative sensors and wireless communication. It includes a knowledge-based supervisor aimed at identifying pollutant sources. Finally, it handles the different operating modes supported by physical sensors: low consumption with battery, and high consumption with mains.The paper presents the abstract model for major RAID entities. Then it sketches how abstract entities are mapped into concrete representations. Finally focuses how sensor different operating mode is supported dynamically.
