Abstract
A programming model for ubiquitous sensor network (USN) applications based on Nano-Qplus is proposed. USN applications mean programs of nodes which are components of sensor network such as sensor, router, sink and actuator. Developers can automatically generate programs of USN applications by setting attributes values of nodes using a script after they model a sensor network. A script for setting attributes values of a node is proposed in this paper. The algorithm of automatic code generation is also described. Developers can easily implement USN applications even if they do not know details of low-level communication, data sharing, and collective operations because the applications are automatically generated from a script. They set only attributes values of nodes using the script. Efforts for USN applications development also are reduced because of automatic code generation. Furthermore, developers can correct errors of applications in the early stage of development through ear]y test based on rapid code generation.
