Distributed Software Management in Sensor Networks using Profiling Techniques

Methodologies for efficient software management in wireless sensor networks (WSN) need to be investigated for operating and maintaining large-scale sensor networks. Until now, some network-based approaches have been described that are limited in terms of scalability, i.e. dependency on reliable end-to-end communication, and security. In this paper, we describe a distributed software management architecture using profiling techniques. We exploit the advantages of robot-based reconfiguration and re-programming methods for efficient and secure software management. The developed methods are depicted in detail. Additionally, demonstrate their applicability and advantages
