A middleware platform based on multi-agents for u-healthcare services with sensor networks

We studied the middleware platform, i.e. COSMOS (Common System for Middleware of Sensor Network), based on multi-agents for u-healthcare services with various types of sensor networks such as the Zigbee wireless sensor network (WSN), the CDMA cellular network, RFID and IP-USN based on the 6LowPAN. Our project is focused on sensor network abstraction for various ubiquitous sensor networks (USN). We defined standard interfaces between USN middleware based on multi-agents and USN networks as well as application services with multi-agents. We implemented several USN services such as u-Healthcare services to consider important issues about middleware platform based on multi-agent applications.
