Ontology driven adaptive data processing in wireless sensor networks

It is important to provide adaptive data processing in wireless sensor networks in order to deal with various applications. In this paper,we propose a WIreless Sensor Networks Ontology (WISNO) for flexible modeling of sensor data. WISNO contains two-tier ontologies, a front-end for coarsegrained analysis and a back-end for high-level fine-grained data processing. We also describes the WISNO reasoning rules that adopts description logic and SWRL for managing data automatically.
