  • NODE AND A WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORK COMPRISING THE NODE
    Publication number: 20140192689
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method to generate or receive, process and transmit information packets in a node that is in a network with embedded devices using at least one of heterogeneous data formats and protocols at different network layers. The method includes, for each packet, steps of dynamically determining and selecting by the node one or more of a plurality of protocols for processing the packet in the node based on protocol rules that specify when a protocol can be used; and activating by the node at runtime the one or more selected protocols for processing the packet. At least two different protocols of the plurality of protocols are selectable and activateable by the node for processing two different packets for the same network layer. A node configured to perform the method.
