Abstract: This paper presents the e-SENSE middleware architecture for distributed processing of context information in dynamic wireless sensor networks At the lower layer, sensor nodes organize into clusters spontaneously based on shared context These clusters form the basis for the service-oriented processing layer, where the functionality of the sensor network is expressed using service task graphs supporting distributed execution of applications The higher layer is responsible for complex context inference and recognition As a concrete example we evaluate the distributed recognition of human activities in a car assembly process

Tandem: A Context-Aware Method for Spontaneous Clustering of Dynamic Wireless Sensor Nodes
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose a method through which wireless sensor nodes organize spontaneously into clusters based on a common context, taking into account a window-based history of believes, and approximate the behavior of the algorithm using a Markov chain model and analyse theoretically the cluster stability.
