From business process specifications to sensor network deployments

The industrial adoption of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is hampered by two main factors. First, there is a lack of integration of WSNs with business process back-ends. Second, programming WSNs is still challenging as it is mainly performed at the operating system level. To this end, we provide makeSense – a unified programming framework and a compilation chain that, from high-level business process specifications, generates code ready for deployment on WSN nodes.
