METHOD, SYSTEM AND PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR DEPLOYING AND ALLOCATING AN AUTONOMIC SENSOR NETWORK

摘要

The present invention provides a method, system and program product for deploying, allocating and providing backup for an autonomic sensor network ecosystem. Under the present invention, the autonomic sensor network ecosystem (10) includes: a set (e.g., one or more) of sensor networks (12) for storing data components; a set of sensor collector information gateways (14) in communication with the sensor networks; and a set of enterprise gateways and storage hubs (hereinafter enterprise gateways(16)). Each sensor network includes a set of sensor peers(18) and at least one super peer(SP/R1 and SP/R2). The super peer manages the sensor network and communicates with the set of sensor collector information gateways. The autonomic sensor network ecosystem of the present invention is deployed and allocated in such a manner that backup and resiliency is provided.
