Abstract

This particular paper describes our most recent work on our system called JAWS. This system is intended to control and monitor Wireless Sensor Network. In principle, JAWS is group of agents implemented on JADE platform. It consists of several agents that are able to communicate with Wireless Sensor Nodes and obtain values from particular sensor nodes called motes. We are also able to inject mobile code to each mote so we can change behaviour of that mote and in extension of the whole network. JAWS system uses services as a natural and most viable concept that helps us to control and monitor Wireless Sensor Network. We will briefly describe basic concepts of our system and describe services used for controlling the network. Concept of services is tightly bound to ability of the system to expose and use services. To expose and use services we created set of protocols. In this paper will be also described the most important protocols of our system. In the end of the paper we will describe some of the problems that we experienced using
our system and we also describe some counter actions that we performed to troubleshoot some problems.
