Metasearching on a wireless sensor network, using a plurality of spatially distributed sensor nodes that monitor physical and environmental conditions at a plurality of locations
Apparatus and method for metasearching on a wireless sensor network, which comprises a plurality of spatially distributed autonomous devices, comprising a plurality of spatially distributed sensor nodes, comprising a plurality of motes, each of which has a mote transceiver and at least one sensor that monitors physical and environmental conditions and collects physical and environmental data at a plurality of locations; and a gateway node, comprising a metasearch engine that sends a plurality of queries to at least of the plurality of motes, via the gateway node, based upon a request executed on a client device; the gateway node receiving search results from the at least two motes, the metasearch engine comprising a processor that groups and sorts the search results into at least two different groups comprising a plurality of physical and environmental data lists; the metasearch engine sending a response, via the gateway node, to the client device.
