 Obiettivo del progetto (Objective)

Wireless sensor networks are expected to play a critical role in the next computing revolution of cooperating objects and smart embedded devices. However, industry adoption is hampered because sensor networks are currently very difficult to program. To realize a sensor network application, programmers must be sensor network experts and must focus on low-level details instead of the high-level objectives of the application.

MakeSense intends to drastically improve the ease of wireless sensor network programming by allowing programmers to express high-level objectives and leave the low-level details to the compiler and run-time system. Our approach consists of three layers: an application model layer, a macroprogramming abstraction layer, and a self-optimizing run-time system layer. The application model layer integrates the sensor networks with business application systems by allowing WSNs to be expressed as a business application concept. The macroprogramming layer provides a network-centric programming abstraction that relieves the programmer of the details of low-level, node-centric programming. The self-optimizing run-time system layer adapts to the specific conditions in the deployed sensor network by optimizing communication patternsand resource consumption based on input from the higher layers.

By design, makeSense enables integration of wireless sensor networks into business processes. The project thereby enables a far-reaching adoption of sensor networks in European industry, holding the potential to become the reference sensor network programming platform in Europe.

The project consortium is very strong and has extensive experience from previous projects in the area. We therefore have the required expertise, skills, and excellence to take this project from its important vision to landmark results that have a significant impact for the future of wireless sensor networks in European industry.
