A RIO Approach for Modeling Wireless Sensor Network

The goal of this paper is to bring forth a model for WSNs with the support of holonic multi-agent systems. In this paper, we not only introduce the RIO diagram to analyze the roles of sensor nodes during different periods of building up holonic architecture, but also present a self-organization scheme to construct a holonic architecture in WSNs. At last, performance analysis is proposed, including quantitative and qualitative analysis. Analysis result indicates that the hybrid architecture has the properties of scalability, distribution, long life-time and robustness.
