Until now: I started developing again, this time in my remaining free time (if there is really [...]
The US is about to ramp up a large scale effort to provide a test environment for Future Internet research. The initiative is called GENI (Global Environment for Network Innovation) and its budget is immense (some hundreds of millions).
The scope for GENI encompasses fixed Internet, wireless Internet and wireless sensing from the hardcore physical layer [...]
Just before Christmas a new version of NORS was uploaded to SourceForge! The new version includes the following changes:
removed SMS sending in BT scan within SSI handler
changed remaining server window titles to NORS from N-RSA
commented lifetime validity check for sensor discovery data in server middleware – new publish in gateways makes this obsolete (since any [...]
The NORS open source contribution (described in an earlier blog) is now also available on SourceForge!
Please download, try and provide feedback…
After a long uphill battle with Nokia’s legal and IPR departments, the NORS (Nokia Remote Sensing) platform is finally going public (see here)!
NORS provides a platform solution for mobile-centric wireless sensing, implemented as a centralized server with a collection of mobile devices acting as gateways towards local WSNs. This solution has been developed based on [...]
