title = "TinyMAPS : a lightweight Java-based mobile agent system for wireless sensor networks",
abstract = "In the context of the development of wireless sensor network (WSN) applications, effective programming frameworks and middlewares for rapid and efficient prototyping of resource-constrained applications are highly required. Mobile agents are an effective distributed programming paradigm that is being used for WSN programming. However its diffusion is limited mainly due to the scarce availability of usable mobile agent systems for WSNs. This paper proposes TinyMAPS, a mobile agent system for programming WSNs based on the Sentilla sensor platform. TinyMAPS derives from MAPS (Mobile Agent Platform for Sun SPOT) and is specifically tailored for sensors more constrained than the Sun SPOTs. After providing a description of TinyMAPS and its comparison with MAPS, a simple yet effective case study implemented with TinyMAPS and concerning a real-time WBSN-based system for human activity monitoring is described.",
