Exploring Sensor Design Patterns

Wednesday
Presentation
   This presentation addresses design patterns for sensors in real-time embedded systems. Think of a sensor - radar, infrared camera, etc. - each does the same basic thing: senses the environment, responds to commands that alter its behavior, and presents collected data in an understandable fashion. Design patterns have been formalized for many aspects of computer-intensive systems. These patterns have not addressed sensors specifically and have omitted temporal considerations that are crucial in real-time environments. The diversity of energy patterns that are employed in sensing tasks obscure an underlying common structure. This commonality spans the range of sensor behavior, including both sensors that emit prior to sensing and those that simply receive energy emitted from other sources. This common structure is independent of the platform upon which the sensor is deployed. The creation of robust design patterns for sensors will aid the achieving of the goal of creating adaptable plug-and-play sensing systems.
