A service-centric solution for wireless sensor networks

With the development of the Internet of Things (IoT), the integration of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) and radio frequency identification (RFID) has attracted more and more attention. A lot of efforts have been made to connect and share the resources gathered by the IoT to meet industry requirements. In this chapter, we overview the current solution of WSNs, and extend the integration of WSNs and RFID as a service-centric solution for WSN (SWSN) combined with semantic web Services. In our proposal, both the WSN sensor nodes and the RFID tags are intelligent SWSN nodes which provide services, and industry applications are clients of such services. In order to achieve this, we provide middleware support for the SWSN and present the evaluation and implementation of the SWSN solution.
