Under the present invention, a wireless sensor network comprising a plurality of peer to peer nodes is provided. Each node in the network includes, among other things, a sensor for detecting environmental factors. When a potential failure is detected within a node, the node will query its neighboring nodes to determine whether they have the capability to store any data component(s) currently stored within the potentially failing node. Based on the querying, the data component(s) in the potentially failing node are copied to one or more of the neighboring nodes. Thereafter, details of the copying can be broadcast to other nodes in the network, and any routing tables that identify the locations of data components stored throughout the wireless sensor network can be updated.

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.

A track comprising seven connected sections forming a loop and an entry section leading into the first of the seven sections. The first section connects to the second section, which connects to the third section, which connects to the fourth section, which connects back to the first section. The fifth, sixth, and seventh sections all are placed between the third and first sections. The third and fifth sections are filled with an identical material of a predetermined size, and each of the first, second, fourth, sixth, and seventh sections are filled with a corresponding material of different size than the material contained in the other sections. In use of this track, a beginning person first walks through the entry path and onto the first section. Then the person walks through the first, second, third, and fourth sections repeatedly for a predetermined period of time depending on the length of the track. With progress, the person then walks laps substituting the fourth section instead with the fifth section. With additional progress, the person walks laps substituting the fifth section with the sixth section. And finally, with final progress, the person walks laps substituting the sixth section with the seventh section.

The present invention provides a method, system and program product for deploying, allocating and providing backup for an autonomic sensor network ecosystem. Under the present invention, the autonomic sensor network ecosystem includes: (1) a set (e.g., one or more) of sensor networks for storing data components; (2) a set of sensor collector information gateways in communication with the sensor networks; and (3) a set of enterprise gateways and storage hubs (hereinafter enterprise gateways). Each sensor network includes a set of sensor peers and at least one super peer. The super peer manages the sensor network and communicates with the set of sensor collector information gateways. The autonomic sensor network ecosystem of the present invention is deployed and allocated in such a manner that backup and resiliency is provided.
