Software architecture for dynamic adaptation of heterogeneous applications

Abstract

The recent apparition of mobile wireless sensor aware to their physical environment and able to process information must allow proposing applications able to take into account their physical context and to react according to the changes of the environment. It suppose to design applications integrating both software and hardware components able to communicate. Applications must use context information from components to measure the quality of the proposed services in order to adapt them in real time. This work is interested in the integration of sensors in distributed applications. It present a service oriented software architecture allowing to manage and reconfigure applications in heterogeneous environment where entities of different nature collaborate: software components and wireless sensors.
