The objective is to provide an application layer interface for

integrating WSN with external networks (IP, TELECOM).
Tremendous growth in both sensor network technology and
anticipated applications is driving the need for new techniques
and tools for analyzing and visualizing sensor network data
streams. We have implemented different Network Topologies
for wireless sensor networks which can be selected on the basis
of area covered, data redundancy issues and energy efficiency.
We have implemented an application interface for data
acquisition and processing on MATLAB and Java platforms.
