Data-Centric UML Profile for Wireless Sensors

Modelling WSN data behaviour is relevant since it would allow to evaluate the capacity of an application for supplying the user needs, moreover, it could enable a transparent integration with different data-centric information systems. Therefore, this article proposes a data-centric UML profile for the design of wireless sensor nodes from the user point-of-view capable of representing the gathered and delivered data of the node. This profile considers different characteristics and configurations of frequency, aggregation, persistence and quality at the level of the wireless sensor nodes. Furthermore, this article validates the UML profile through a computer-aided software engineering (CASE) tool implementation and one case study, centred on the data collected by a real WSN implementation for precision agriculture and smart farming.

Smart Agriculture

Over the past few years, the designing in smart agriculture system is a very important concept. Using smart farming techniques we can build up the crop yield, and concurrently attain better output from the input. In precision agriculture, a wireless sensor network brings a cost-effective solution to watch and manipulate. We already have many wireless protocols like Wi-Fi, Cellular, BLE (Bluetooth low energy), etc. Although this automation, not optimal for cultivation sensor nodes, there is a demand to send information to a great distance without an internet connection. This leads to boost the LoRa (Long range) technology, which can do very long-range transmission with the lowest cost [14]. The paper provides a brief survey of certain requirements for Smart Agriculture such as wireless sensor networks.
