Abstract

In sensor networks, both bandwidth allocation and Bandwidth on Demand (BoD) schemes may be adopted, on top of a generic multiple access protocol, for the purpose of differentiating various categories of devices that produce nonhomogenous data flows. At the same time, the modern Internet exhibits a trend toward an even more distributed architectural approach; decentralized architectures are gaining more and more popularity, and middleware solutions are widely adopted. Among them, the peer-to-peer (p2p) networking paradigm allows obtaining a redundant architecture that reacts well against failure. Starting from p2p principles, this letter introduces a novel middleware-based algorithm for configuring and managing bandwidth in a sensor network.
