An DDS based Architecture in Supporting of Data Centric Wireless Sensor Network Environments

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have emerged as one of the most promising technology to provide a wide variety of industrial applications. However, it is still failing to respond in a timely fashion service. In contrast to existing studies, we propose a more practical standard known as Data Distribution Service (DDS), as a middleware standard for interoperable Data Centric Publish-Subscribe (DCPS) architecture with real-time data distribution capabilities, and a candidate for standards based realizations of equally data centric WSN environments. Especially, this paper aims to evaluate on customized design features for real-time WSNs of an applicable and supportive architecture of DDS-based middleware. In the meantime, to integrate the underlying heterogeneous WSN and DDS, a supportive wireless protocol design is required and, thus, those features could be taken into account in designing the protocol.
