Remote Sensor Calibration Through MADAMS Services

The work described in this paper aims at supporting the development of distributed measurement systems using the service oriented computing paradigm. A general architecture -MADAMS- was designed and implemented which allows highly dynamic measurement services to be deployed, i.e. published, retrieved and exploited in a networked context. MADAMS depends on Java/Jini. As a significant application, the paper focus on controlling remote sensors abstracted as MADAMS services. In particular, a service catalogue is described which allows remote sensor calibration over the Internet.
