N2 - This paper presents a decentralized Petri net (PN) based wireless sensor node architecture (PN-WSNA) to construct a flexible and reconfigurable WSN for intelligent monitoring systems. PN is a graphic based discrete event dynamic system (DEDS) modeling approach, and it is advantageous for modeling the system with concurrent and asynchronous systems. Therefore, the PN is usually used to construct agent based intelligent monitoring systems. The PN-WSNA system consists of a PN-WSNA kernel program and a PN-WSNA management program. The PN-WSNA kernel program is developed as an agent that is installed in the sensor node, and it is responsible of receiving and decoding PN models, collecting sensor data from analog and digital channels, intercommunication between sensor nodes, PN model inference and decision. On the other hand, the PN-WSNA management program is executed on a remote host computer, and it is responsible of distance sensor node managements via routing tables. More specially, a user interface is provided for system managers to edit PN models in a graphic manner, and the PN models can be delivered to the corresponding sensor node online without physical visits. Therefore, the proposed PN-WSNA system not only performs a reconfigurable WSN architecture, but also provides an easy graphical PN edit environment for constructing intelligent agents. Such a system can be applied to the factory automation, intelligent diagnosis, climate monitoring, etc. Finally, a simple prototype system is constructed using the Zigbee BAT mote modules to verify the proposed PN-WSNA system. Index Terms-wireless sensor networks, reconfigurable sensor networks, Perti nets, intelligent monitoring systems.
