DIAFORUS stands for DIstributed Applications and Functions Over Redundant Unattended Sensors
The DIAFORUS project intends to develop a framework for in-network reasoning and cooperation in heterogeneous wireless sensor networks, addressing from the sensor and gateway hardware level to the application level. This framework will deliver autonomic functioning to the network while providing flexible mechanisms for management and on-the-fly reconfiguration of the system behaviour. Node cooperation combined with adaptive security mechanisms will help achieve overall energy saving. The results of the project will be demonstrated through a real deployment in the context of area security surveillance.
