<p>Systems and methods are described that provide a system monitor component (136), e.g., for a sensor network (102, 104), which may include, e.g., a server component that is continuously running and monitoring zero or more networks (102, 104) consisting of (possibly wireless) devices, where each network may be executing a different communications protocol, such as a proprietary, platform-dependent protocol. The system monitor (136) may maintain a system model (138) of the networks (102, 104). The system monitor (136) may be connected with the networks through a message transport system (150) that routes any occurring messages in a common or standard communications protocol, as well as message handlers (144, 148) that access either platform-abstracting gateways (146) or the proprietary messages that the devices of one or more of the networks (102, 104) may use.</p> |
