Distributed data exchange of coal mine equipment measurement

This paper presents a novel data exchange model for the collaborative distributed measurement across multi-organizations of coal mines. To explore this idea, we have developed a Grid-based distributed heterogeneous measurement platform with high reconfigurability, interoperability, extendibility and the interconnection of the distributed equipment for the security of production of mines. To carry out the data exchange among the distributed equipment, the problems about equipment location, the reconstruction of measurement interface and the communication among the accessed equipment are studied. With a dynamic reconfigurable scheduling mechanism, the proposed way implements the reconfiguration of the virtual measurement cases and schedules the users’ measurement tasks among all the registered equipment. The availability and efficiency of the way have been verified by the given example in distributed measurement collaboration among the coal mines with promising results
