Wireless intelligent monitoring and analysis systems
2004
The wireless intelligent monitoring and analysis systems is a proof-of-concept directed at discovering solution(s) for
providing decentralized intelligent data analysis and control for distributed containers equipped with wireless sensing
units. The objective was to embed smart behavior directly within each wireless sensor container, through the
incorporation of agent technology into each sensor suite. This approach provides intelligent directed fusion of data based
on a social model of teaming behavior. This system demonstrates intelligent sensor behavior that converts raw sensor
data into group knowledge to better understand the integrity of the complete container environment. The emergent team
behavior is achieved with lightweight software agents that analyze sensor data based on their current behavior mode.
When the system starts-up or is reconfigured the agents self-organize into virtual random teams based on the
leader/member/lonely paradigm. The team leader collects sensor data from their members and investigates all abnormal
situations to determine the legitimacy of high sensor readings. The team leaders flag critical situation and report this
knowledge back to the user via a collection of base stations. This research provides insight into the integration issues and
concerns associated with integrating multi-disciplinary fields of software agents, artificial life and autonomous sensor
behavior into a complete system.
