FABRIC: Towards Data Type-Centric Middleware Synthesis. Pfisterer, D., Hellbrück, H., & Fischer, S. In Proceedings of the Euro-American Workshop on Middleware for Sensor Networks in conjunction with the International Conference on Distributed Computing (DCOSS 2006), 2006.
abstract   bibtex   
Writing applications for wireless sensor networks presents a complex domain that requires expertise from various fields. Existing middleware frameworks alleviate this problem by hiding low-level networking aspects but are neither comprehensive nor flexible enough. Our system called Fabric addresses this problem by proposing a data type-centric middleware synthesis framework for heterogeneous devices. While hiding networking aspects and complexity of distributed systems, it still offers the required flexibility because data handling can be ifferentiated on a per-type basis. This approach especially addresses the unique requirements of resource constrained devices. In addition, Fabric supports a clear separation between application and framework development, thus supporting a less error-prone development process.
