Autonomic sensor network ecosystem
First Claim
1. An autonomic sensor network ecosystem, comprising:
- a set of sensor networks each comprising a set of sensor peers and at least one super peer;
a set of micro grid gateways in communication with the set of sensor networks; and
a set of enterprise gateways in communication with the set of micro grid gateways, wherein the set of micro grid gateways are adapted to receive and route requests from the set of sensor networks and the set of enterprise gateways.

Abstract
The present invention provides a method, system and program product for deploying and allocating resources, and addressing threats in an autonomic sensor network ecosystem. Specifically, under the present invention, the autonomic sensor network ecosystem includes a set (e.g., one or more) of sensor networks each having a set of sensor peers and at least one super peer; a set of micro grid gateways; and a set of enterprise gateways. Each micro grid gateway is typically adapted to receive requests from a sensor network, an enterprise gateway, and/or another micro grid gateway. Moreover, each micro grid gateway includes a request broker for receiving the requests; a request queue manager for queuing the requests; a scheduler for scheduling the requests; and a resource manager for monitoring the set of sensor networks.

12. A computer-implemented method for allocating resources in an autonomic sensor network ecosystem, comprising:
-
receiving a request for resources on a first micro grid gateway from a first sensor network, wherein the first sensor network includes a set of sensor peers and at least one super peer;
polling a second sensor network based on the request to determine available resources in the second sensor network; and
allocating resources from the second sensor network to the first sensor network based on a response to the polling. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15)

16. A computer-implemented method for addressing threats in an autonomic sensor network ecosystem, comprising:
-
detecting a threat in a sensor network of the autonomic sensor network ecosystem, wherein the sensor network includes a set of sensor peers and at least one super peer;
communicating a request corresponding to the threat to an enterprise gateway of the autonomic sensor network that is in communication with the sensor network; and
determining available resources for at least one other sensor network to address the threat based on the request. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18)

19. A program product stored on a computer readable medium for allocating and deploying resources in an autonomic sensor network ecosystem, the computer readable medium comprising program code for causing a computer system to perform the following steps:
-
receiving requests from a sensor network and an enterprise gateway of the autonomic sensor network ecosystem;
queuing the requests;
scheduling the requests for communication between the sensor network and the enterprise gateway;
monitoring the sensor network; and
allocating resources based on the monitoring. - View Dependent Claims (20)
