A Framework for Agent-Based Collaborative Information Processing in Distributed Sensor Network

CIP in DSN is one of the most problems in application based on sensor network. Three levels of CIP, i.e. signal level, information level and knowledge level, are distinguished in this paper. To support all of these CIPs, A general framework integrating the sensor network into agent-based grid is proposed. The framework uses the agent as the interface of access the sensor network, and applies the mobile agent gathering the information from sensor network. And the comprehensiveness, Scalability, Autonomy cooperation and Energy efficiency of this framework are better than others.
