With the ever increasing emergence of new sensors, interfaces and mobile devices, the grand challenge is to keep up with this race in developing software drivers and wrappers for IoT things. In this paper, we examine the approaches that automate the process of developing middleware drivers/wrappers for the IoT things. We propose ASCM4GSN architecture to address this challenge efficiently and effectively. We demonstrate the proposed approach using Global Sensor Network (GSN) middleware which exemplifies a cluster of data streaming engines. The ASCM4GSN architecture significantly speeds up the wrapper development and sensor configuration process as demonstrated for Android mobile phone based sensors as well as for Sun SPOT sensors.Keywords: Big datum; Data streaming; Grand Challenge; Human intervention; Internet of Things (IOT); Mobile sensors; Network middleware; Sensor configurations; Software drivers; Data reduction; Internet; Mobile devices; Sensor networks; Middleware Global sensor network middleware; Internet of things; Mobile sensors; Sensor networks201210.1145/2258056.22580622016-02-24
