ClickWatch: Problems with WSN Experiments

(mostly) unstructured data representation (e.g. log-files)

analysis based on scripts and log-files:

➡ unsafe

➡ not reusable

➡ not reproducible

➡ not automated

Solution:

§ give all data a structure through meta-data and types

§ record data and meta-data in a database

§ use type-safe implementations for analysis or even uses model transformation (structural transformation)

Summary

§ Some applications require Large nodes.

§ Research & development requires a different platform then a WSN in production.

§ if there are large quantities of different types of data involved, things do not have to become messy.
