Heterogeneous sensors access middleware platform based on OSGI

In the recent decades, Internet of Things (IoT) is becoming much more popular than ever. The sensors in IoT are becoming heterogeneous and abundant. It is necessary to implement a middleware platform to deal with the tremendous growth in the number and variety of sensors. In this paper, we design and implement a modularized and dynamic platform based on OSGI framework to deal with the vast heterogeneous sensors. Building an IoT framework with the OSGI merits will reduce development works and simplify the management. With the modularity and dynamic, the system can be divided into particular subsystems in which the modification will only affect the internal data operation without disturbing others. Under the normal operation of the whole system, new module could be accessed and activated. The system offers a component-oriented environment for dynamic management of heterogeneous devices which will be a good resolution to different resource in IoT.
