NANO-Communication Management System for Smart Environments

Resumo

This paper describes a communication platform for the middleware nanodata processing. This communication platform is based on a hierarchized protocol, called the Communication Management Nanolayer (CmNA), which is a layer of the ARMNANO middleware. ARMNANO is an autonomic architecture, which defines mechanisms to deliver proper services from nanostructures in smart environments, using nanodevices such as nanosensors and nanoactuators. In this paper is described the CmNA layer, which is composed of 3 classes that are, the Protocol Management System, the Ontology of the Physical Communication Management and the Abnormal Situation Detection Mechanism. Our proposal can be used in contexts like smart cities, Internet of Things, and Internet of NanoThings. In this sense, we demonstrated the applicability of CmNA in two case studies in the context of medical care.
