CRIS Current Research Information System
IRIS è la soluzione IT che facilita la raccolta e la gestione dei dati relativi alle attività e ai prodotti della ricerca. Fornisce a ricercatori, amministratori e valutatori gli strumenti per monitorare i risultati della ricerca, aumentarne la visibilità e allocare in modo efficace le risorse disponibili.
EnglishThe growing interest around the cyber-physical systems (CPS), populated with open systems counting myriads of devices, is calling for new technologies both in telecommunications and software engineering with full integration among them. One of the most promising wireless communication technologies for the CPS is LoRaWAN, which enables long range transmission with low power consumption. Typical application scenarios include smart-homes, smart-cities, precision agriculture, and intelligent transportation. On the software side, novel paradigms are emerging to dominate the complexity introduced by the CPS with a large number of spatially distributed devices. Among them, aggregate computing is gaining traction, for it enables expressing the behavior of aggregates of devices by considering their ensemble as a single computational entity, allowing expressive space-time computations. In this paper, we introduce a software architecture which allows aggregate programming software to execute on a network of LoRa-communicating devices. We also provide an open source prototype implementing such architecture, which we use to study the current limitations of existing aggregate programming interpreters in resource-constrained scenarios. We conclude by drawing recommendations for developing such interpreters in order to pave the way to a more power- and data-efficient design.

| Abstract: | The growing interest around the cyber-physical systems (CPS), populated with open systems counting myriads of devices, is calling for new technologies both in telecommunications and software engineering with full integration among them. One of the most promising wireless communication technologies for the CPS is LoRaWAN, which enables long range transmission with low power consumption. Typical application scenarios include smart-homes, smart-cities, precision agriculture, and intelligent transportation. On the software side, novel paradigms are emerging to dominate the complexity introduced by the CPS with a large number of spatially distributed devices. Among them, aggregate computing is gaining traction, for it enables expressing the behavior of aggregates of devices by considering their ensemble as a single computational entity, allowing expressive space-time computations. In this paper, we introduce a software architecture which allows aggregate programming software to execute on a network of LoRa-communicating devices. We also provide an open source prototype implementing such architecture, which we use to study the current limitations of existing aggregate programming interpreters in resource-constrained scenarios. We conclude by drawing recommendations for developing such interpreters in order to pave the way to a more power- and data-efficient design. |
