Abstract

In this paper we describe the results of modelling an activity in WSN; we concentrate on effects of organising groups of sensors, on relationships between sensors and the effects on their autonomy. Consequently our work are concentrated on developing the formal methods and techniques necessary to model and evaluate situations in the network, processes of decisions making and implementing intelligent behavior while following the general outlines of the network activity. These requirements will entail investigating ways in which intelligent systems evaluate, interact and self-organise, both individually and cooperating with other aerial explorers or interacting with environmental stimulus.
