Wireless sensor networks have been used in many applications such as marine environment, army installation, etc. The sensor data is very important, because all these applications depend on sensor data. The possibility of communication failures becomes high since the surrounding environment of a wireless sense network has an sensitive effect on its communications. In particular, communication failures in underwater communications occur more frequently because of a narrow bandwidth, slow transmission speed, noises from the surrounding environments and so on. In cases of communication failures, the sensor data can be lost in the sensor data delivery process and these kinds of sensor data losses can make critical huge physical damages on human or environments in applications such as fire surveillance systems. For this reason, although a few of studies for storing and compressing sensor data have been proposed, there are lots of difficulties in actual realization of the studies due to none-existence of the framework using network communications. In this paper, we propose a framework for reducing loss of the sensor data and analyze its performance. The our analyzed results in non-framework application show a decreasing data recovery rate, T/t, as t time passes after a network failure, where T is a time period to fill the storage with sensor data after the network failure. Moreover, all the sensor data generated after a network failure are the errors impossible to recover. But, on the other hand, the analyzed results in framework application show 100% data recovery rate with 2~6% data error rate after data recovery.

Due to the Fourth Industrial Revolution, innovation in various technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), big data (Big Data), and cloud (Cloud) is accelerating, and data is considered an important asset. With the innovation of these technologies, various efforts are being made to lead technological innovation in the field of defense science and technology. In Korea, the government also announced the "Defense Innovation 4.0 Plan," which consists of five key points and 16 tasks to foster advanced science and technology forces in March 2023. The plan also includes the establishment of a Condition-Based Maintenance system (CBM+) to improve the operability and availability of weapons systems and reduce defense costs. Condition Based Maintenance (CBM) aims to secure the reliability and availability of the weapon system and analyze changes in equipment's state information to identify them as signs of failure and defects, and CBM+ is a concept that adds Remaining Useful Life prediction technology to the existing CBM concept [1]. In order to establish a CBM+ system for the weapon system, sensors are installed and sensor data are required to obtain condition information of the weapon system. In this paper, we propose a sensor data metadata schema to efficiently and effectively manage sensor data collected from sensors installed in various weapons systems.

In sensor network processing environments, current location tracking methods have problems in accuracy on receiving the transmitted data and pinpointing the exact locations depending on the applied methods, and also have limitations on decision making and monitoring the situations because of the lack of considering context-awareness. In order to overcome such limitations, we proposed a method which utilized context-awareness in a data processing module which tracks a location of the magnetic object(Magnetic Line Tracer) and controlled introspection data based on magnetic sensor. Also, in order to prove its effectiveness we have built a wireless sensor network test-bed and conducted various location tracking experiments of line tracer using the data and resulted in processing of context-aware data. Using the new data, we have analyzed the effectiveness of the proposed method for locating the information database entries and for controlling the route of line tracer depending on context-awareness.

Recently, In the wireless sensor network, a study which guarantees integrity of not only data gathered from sensor node but also energy consumption of it is now going on. However, the existing study cannot guarantee data integrity and overhead of cluster head which merges data from sensor node. This paper proposes multi-path hash chain technique which guarantees integrity of merged data and reduces overhead of cluster head when cluster head merges with data transmitted from sensor node. The proposed technique forms multi-hash chain dividing main-path and assistance-path to guarantee data integrity of cluster head, when merges data. The assistance-path, which is used when main-path is not, supports integrity of sensor node while minimizing overhead of cluster head when sensor node is authenticate.

Recent development in wireless communication and mobile positioning technologies make geosensor networks widely used in the various fields of real world. As a result, much research has been done on the middleware that uses limited energy resources efficiently. However, because traditional middleware does not consider the characteristics of sensor node, such as computing power and specification, the existing middleware call not support the sensor nodes with only the restricted system resource. Therefore, in this paper, we design and implement a new Bytecode based Data Service Middleware supporting energy efficiency in geosensor networks. At first, the proposed middleware provides the optimized functions for sensor nodes by using minimum by tee ode instruction set and data manager supporting hardware abstraction. Secondly, the proposed middleware increases the energy efficiency of sensor node through both data aggregation query processing and data filtering that minimize data transmission by eliminating unnecessary data. Finally, we show from our performance analysis that the proposed middleware is more energy efficient than the existing SwissQM.

Time variation is the essential component of the context awareness. It is a beneficial way not only including time lapse but also clustering time interval for the context inference using the information from sensor mote. In this study, we proposed a novel way of clustering based multi-sensor data fusion for the context inference. In the time interval, we fused the sensed signal of each time slot, and fused again with the results of th first fusion. We could reach the enhanced context inference with assessing the segmented signal according to the time interval at the Dempster-Shafer evidence theory based multi-sensor data fusion.

Wireless sensor networks have many sensor nodes which response sudden events in a sensor fields. Some efficient routing protocol is required in a sensor networks with mobile sink node. A data-path template is offered for the data announcement and data request from source node and sink node respectively. Sensed data are transferred from source node to sink node using short-distance calculation. Typical protocols for the wireless networks with mobile sink are TTDD(Two-Tier Data Dissemination) and CBPER(Cluster-Based Power-Efficient Routing). The porposed SPDR(Short-Path Data Routing) protocol in this paper shows more improved energy efficiencies from the result of simulations than the typical protocols.
