Demo Abstract: Enabling Transparent WSN Resource Access via RESTful Web Services Host Publication: 9th European Conference on Wireless Sensor Networks (EWSN 2012) Authors: W. Colitti, N. De Caro, J. Tiete, K. Ha Phung, K. Steenhaut and A. Touhafi Publication Date: Feb. 2012
Abstract: The Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP) is a Representational State Transfer (REST) based web transfer protocol which provides several Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) functionalities, re-designed for constrained embedded devices. CoAP enables transparent WSN resource access by means of HTTP-CoAP proxies. The transparent proxy facilitates the seamless integration of WSNs with web applications and reduces the complexity of Internet of Things (IoT) architectures. This work demonstrates the prototype design and development of a web service based platform for WSN monitoring. The system is based on an HTTP-CoAP proxy, running on a Linux embedded board, which provides transparent WSN resource access.
