Abstract:
The design of a heterogeneous sensor tier for the generic, multi-service, cloud-based, IoT operational platform EMULSION is presented in this paper, along with typical hardware examples and deployment schemas involving different types of sensor sets and monitoring stations for detecting and notifying about the changes occurring in the physical world. Aided by the communication tier, the sensor tier deals also with issues of heterogeneity related to the integration of different IoT things, objects, devices, etc., into EMULSION. The elaborated multi-tiered structure of the platform, allowing much flexibility of the service provisioning along with easy scalability and expandability, is presented as well.
